Dear zonty,

Thanks for your post.

It's not possible to tell you a YES or NO re the rabies vaccinations as unfortunately we're not medical professionals and are not qualified to do so.

I would recommend checking with your GP or a travel health clinic for professional advice.

The Department of Health has a "diseases" section on its website:

The CDC (Centers for Disease Control) is an American site and has some really useful information:

I hope this helps and am sure you will have a great time in India!
