The Real Reason Behind Delhi-NCR's Stray Dog Problem

Email for Inquiries: [email protected] The Supreme Court of India, in a suo motu case concerning a rise in dog bite incidents and rabies cases, has directed the Delhi government and other authorities in the National Capital Region (NCR) to remove all stray dogs from public places and relocate them to shelters. The court cited public safety as the primary concern, particularly for infants, children, and the elderly. Key points of the directive include: Removal of all strays: The order mandates that all stray dogs, whether sterilized or not, be picked up from all localities and not be released back onto the streets. Establishment of shelters: Authorities are to create new shelters to accommodate the dogs. The court initially suggested a capacity for 5,000 dogs, to be established within eight weeks, and stressed that these facilities must be adequately staffed for sterilization, immunization, and general care. Strict action against obstruction: The court warned of strict action, including contempt of court proceedings, against any individual or organization that attempts to obstruct the removal of the stray dogs. Contradiction with existing rules: This directive appears to contradict the existing Animal Birth Control (ABC) Rules, 2023, which state that sterilized and vaccinated dogs should be returned to their original location. The order has sparked a significant debate, with supporters welcoming the move as a necessary step for public safety and opponents, including animal rights activists and welfare groups, criticizing it as inhumane, impractical, and legally questionable. A larger Supreme Court bench has been constituted to review the matter, and has reserved its order on pleas seeking a stay on the original directive.
