Annual Day celebrations

CHENNAI : The Vice-Chancellor of Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, N. Balaraman, agreed to consider the demands of the students as per university procedures.

He announced the decision at the Veterinary College's annual day on Monday.

More "ward hours"

The students had demanded more "ward hours" that would provide them hands-on experience.

Currently, they watch video films of surgeries but do not get an opportunity to do surgeries. The students were not allowed to touch animals following a ban to prevent cruelty to animals.

More stipend sought

Dr. Balaraman said students should have an opinion of their problems if they wanted solutions to them.
