CHICKEN SAFETY CONSUMPTION

No need to panic over bird flu, measures to control disease in place: Andhra minister

The Animal Husbandry Minister warned against unnecessary rumour mongering, noting that some on social media are falsely pegging the number of dead chickens at 40 lakh. Only 5.4 lakh birds have died in the recent past, out of a total of 10.7 crore chickens across the state, he said.
