Apply to be a AI Worker (Gopal Mitra)

Checklist:

  • To increase AI coverage, educated and unemployed persons are trained by ALDA as private AI workers or Gopal Mitras
  • Application can be submitted in plain paper in nearest veterinary centre.

Overview

The number of Government AI centers are not sufficient to cover the entire population especially those farmers residing outside the serviceable area of these centers. On the other hand, Artificial Insemination (AI) programme demands 24-hour service accessibility to AI centers.

To increase the coverage, the veterinary department is outsourcing AI activity to interested unemployed educated youths from the interior area after training them on AI as per GoI guideline. They are introduced as Private A.I. workers or Gopal Mitras to make breeding inputs available at farmer’s doorstep of all areas.
