In Ambikapur, Chhattisgarh, two Sanjal breed mares were euthanized due to Glanders, a contagious disease. The veterinary department administered the injections following diagnostic confirmation. The bodies were buried in Bhittikla, near the city. Glanders is typically found in horses, donkeys, and mules, and can be transmitted to humans. The mares belonged to a resident of Nawapara, who kept horses for social events. After multiple tests, both mares were confirmed to have contracted the disease. As a result, authorities have banned the entry of horses and other equine species into the area for three months.
