VMC has 8 Bolero and 6 tractor trailers to carry out operations against stray cattle nuisance.

VMC has four cattle camps where captured stray cattle are kept. In anticipation of implementation of new policy against stray cattle from 1st November, VMC is setting up another 300-capacity cattle camp behind Swaminarayan mandir at Atladra. DeshGujarat
