Caring for Rural Livelihoods
Kairos is a proud implementing partner of the 1962 Mobile Veterinary Unit (MVU) Programme, a flagship initiative under the Government of India’s Livestock Health & Disease Control (LHDC) scheme. This service ensures that rural and underserved livestock owners receive timely veterinary care—helping protect animals, preserve livelihoods, and promote rural resilience.

With operations in Uttarakhand and Jharkhand, our veterinary vertical is one of the most impactful services we manage—combining rapid response, skilled personnel, and tech-enabled tracking to reach the last mile.

Key Features of 1962 Services

  • Traumatic injuries
  • Calving complications
  • Infections and sudden illness
  • Gynaecological and surgical cases

Dedicated Response Teams

Every MVU is staffed by:

These teams are trained in field veterinary protocols and rural community engagement to deliver both treatment and education on animal health.
