The Supreme Court has directed that all stray dogs in Delhi NCR be picked up within eight weeks and housed in dedicated dog shelters to be set up by concerned authorities. The court instructed municipal bodies and other agencies to coordinate and create adequate shelter facilities within the stipulated timeframe, ensuring canines are removed from public spaces and not released back onto streets. The Delhi government, MCD, and NDMC were instructed to begin picking up dogs, with a warning of action against anyone obstructing the process. Animal rights activists have expressed concerns regarding the order’s implementation and scientific basis. One activist stated, "This is an unprecedentedly harsh order and it has been passed without any discussion or deliberation." Concerns include the lack of dog census, non-existent municipal shelters in NCR, and the potential for dogs to die or fight in unplanned confinement. Activists also questioned the data on dog bites and rabies deaths, citing a lack of scientific study behind the decision. The order is seen by some as impacting 10 lakh dogs with non-existent infrastructure, manpower, and budgets. #supremecourt #straydogs #delhincr #itwebvideos #dogshelters #animalrights #animalwelfare #courtorder #publichealth #dogmenace #nationalcapital #apexcourt #animalrightsactivist #judicialreview #infrastructure #manpower #budgets #rabies #dogbites #delhigovernment #mcd #ndmc
