"This is for the first time in West Bengal that an indoor facility for pet dogs has come up in a government-run hospital. It was long time demand of pet lovers for a indoor facility," Animal Resources Development Minister Swapan Debnath said.
"We have an outdoor facility in all the animal hospitals across the state but we never had an indoor ward. In near future, we hope to extend this facility to all veterinary hospitals in the state," Debnath said.
"There are a few mobile vans for dogs and animals. More such mobile vans will come up in districts in the days to come," Debnath said.
