1934. He was appointed an examiner, and examined the
students in Hygiene, Dietetics and Animal Breeding at the
annual and diploma examinations of the Bihar and Orissa
Veterinary College. He also delivered lectures to the cadets
of the Hazaribagh Police Training College on common
contagious diseases of cattle, and on their general management.

20. During the year, efforts were made by Mr. Sen to
increase the strength of the subordinate veterinary service, and
as a result the post of 3rd touring veterinary assistant
surgeon in the Sadr subdivision of Gaya district at Tikari has
been sanctioned. He moved the district board, Patna, for
the creation of a new post of touring veterinary assistant
surgeon at Bakhtiarpur and also the district board, Monghyr,
for another such post at Lakhisarai. Most likely both these
posts will be sanctioned. A flood having occurred in Dinapore
area of Patna district, Mr. Sen made a special tour with a
