History… The Foot Prints
It was 1981. Department of Zoology, University of Pune was hosting a National Symposium on Developmental Anatomy. The few stalwart figures of Veterinary Anatomy were there as the participants. The presence of like minded people brought a consensus decision to bring into being the National Body of Veterinary Anatomists. The first ad-hoc body of veterinary anatomists was formed for that upcoming Nationwide Society cum Organization.
