abstract: Out of 720 faecal samples studied from acute diarrhoeal patients comprising 645 children and 75 adults, only 4 yielded Campylobacter strains. No Campylobacter was isolated from 300 control faecal samples. One isolate each of C. Coli and C. jejuni was obtained from faecal samples of chicken and goat respectively. No Campylobacter was isolated from 10 sewage samples studied.
