Indian Veterinary Association, Kerala began publishing its official organ "Mriga Sampath" in 1990. This publication was brought out every quarter. It carried scientific articles, field experiences and literary works of veterinarians besides news on organisational activities. This journal ceased to exist when the new publication JIVA (Journal of Indian Veterinary Association, Kerala) started in 1996.


JIVA (Journal of Indian Veterinary Association, Kerala)
JIVA replaced the former publication, 'Mriga Sampath' of IVA Kerala in 1996. It carried articles related to the profession, scientific articles by the members, interview with dignitaries, book/web reviews and organisational news. Even though JIVA was intended to be published as a Quarterly, this could be published only once or twice a year due to high cost of printing and lack of revenues. The cover stories, articles and editorials led to debates and controversies and attracted media attention.
