RESOLUTION 
The 24th April, 2012 
Subject: Restructuring of the Odisha Veterinary Service Cadre. 
Livestock production has always been an integral part of the rural economy in 
Odisha. The Animal Husbandry sector accounts for nearly 30% of the Gross State 
Domestic Product for Agriculture and allied activities. The sector has ample potential to 
substantially enhance the production of milk, egg and meat to meet the domestic market 
demands, create employment and income generating opportunities for the rural poor and 
to enhance their food and livelihood security. 
2. Keeping in view of the above aspects and in order to realize the overall goals of 
the Long-Term Action Plan, it is necessary to  streamline and strengthen the Directorate of 
Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services with a focus on delivery of specialized services 
which needs an organizational structure capable of meeting the new challenges. The 
present organizational set up of the DAH & VS has been restructured to meet the 
emerging need of better animal health care and livestock production in the State.   
Considering the need to streamline livestock production and animal health care of the 
State and overall goal incorporated in the Long Term Perspective Plan, the proposal for 
restructuring of OVS cadre was under active consideration of Government for sometime 
past. After careful consideration, the Stat e Government has been pleased to restructure
