GOVERNMENT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH ANIMAL HUSBANDRY DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENTAL MANUAL (Approved by Govt. vide letter No. AHY-A(4)-1/2010-III-L dt. 10-09-2013) Issued by:- DIRECTORATE OF ANIMAL HUSBANDRY, HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA-5 FOREWORD The Departmental Manual of Animal Husbandry Department gives a bird’s eye view of the Departmental Organization and its various activities. Human ingenuity invariably renders it difficult to make into law, provision for all conceivable eventualities. Fluidity of norms and lack of precision makes the lot of even the most diligent and conscientious public servant difficult. The public servant must be flexible so as to be effective. However, flexibility turns out to be a double edged weapon, and has often served as an excuse for abuse of authority. Strict adherence to the letter of the law on the other hand invites understandable criticism of rigidity and unresponsiveness. In these circumstances, limits and safeguards have to be provided enabling implementation of policies and programmes with sufficient creativity but without too much scope for misjudgements doubts and suspicions. For effective and efficient working of Animal Husbandry Department, there is a need for a well defined job description, which fixes accountability and responsibility of the personnel. This fact has duly taken care of in a full chapter devoted entirely to this cause. This will help the work force to understand the responsibilities, which are entrusted to them. Various Acts and Rules pertaining to Animal Husbandry and Veterinary services have duly been incorporated. I acknowledge the sincere and hard work of Dr. Uday Singh Rana and Dr. Rajeev Mehta, who were instrumental in putting forth the comparative details of old and this new manual with comments so as to justify the changes in corporate here in for making the same easily understandable for the authorities leading to its subsequent approval besides this, the arduous efforts put in overtime by them in computing and designing of this manual made it possible for the manual to be presented in its present shape and form. I also appreciate the sincere efforts put in by Dr. B. P. Malhotra & Dr. Ashwani Kumar Gupta, Ex- Directors’ alongwith present Director, Dr. B. S. Kaul in materializing the manual to be approved and published in the earliest possible time. I am glad that the Department of Animal Husbandry has revised the Departmental Manual in keeping with the times. I hope it will be useful guide to all Officers/Officials of the Department making them effective in their day to day work. DEEPAK SANAN (IAS) Addl. Chief Secretary (A.H.) to the Govt. of Himachal Pradesh, Shimla-2. FROM THE DIRECTOR’S DESK Livestock Sector plays an important role in the economy of Himachal Pradesh contributing about 6.7% in its GDP. Earlier, the Departmental Manual was prepared in the year 1989. During the last 23 years, major changes have taken place in the Organisational Set up, Policies, Programmes, Schemes and Projects being implemented in the department. Similarly, various Acts, Rules, Regulations pertaining to Animal Husbandry Sector have also undergone changes. As a result need was felt to thoroughly revise the Departmental Manual considering the present scenario. All the obsolete and irrelevant material has been culled off and latest provisions have been incorporated. Due attention has been paid to the aspect of Duties and Responsibilities of various Officers/officials of the department. To promote e- Governance and bring efficiency and transparency in the functioning of its offices for the ultimate goal of Good-governance, a full chapter on this specific matter has been included. Thus this manual will serve as a compendium of all the departmental policies, activities, programmes, schemes, projects, etc. I am highly appreciative of the sincere and hard work of Dr. K.D. Ryot, Dr. Shekher Massey, Dr. Uday Singh Rana and Dr. Rajeev Mehta, who were assigned the task of thoroughly revising and updating this Departmental Manual. The secretarial assistance provided by Sh. L.R. Kaushal, Sh. Ravinder Singh Rana and Sh. Vijay Kumar is duly acknowledged. Though every effort has been taken to revise and update this Manual, yet some errors might have crept in inadvertently. Therefore, I request all the users of this Manual to bring such discrepancies into the notice of the authorities, so that corrective measures could be undertaken at the directorate level. I hope that this revised, updated Manual will prove highly useful and it will come to the expectations of its readers. DR. B. S. KAUL Director, Animal Husbandry, Himachal Pradesh, Shimla-5.
