The Supreme Court has ordered the immediate removal of all stray dogs from Delhi-NCR areas and sent them to shelter homes. After this order of the apex court, a heated debate has erupted on social media.
The court ordered the Delhi government and the municipal bodies of Gurugram, Noida, and Ghaziabad to remove all stray dogs from the streets and keep them in shelter homes, and not leave them on the streets again.
On one hand, this decision is a relief for Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), while on the other hand, those raising their voice for the rights of animals have called it a dangerous step. They say that there is neither land nor sufficient funds to implement this order.
Debate erupted on social media.
This issue has gained momentum on social media. A user wrote sarcastically, "People who love stray dogs so much should give a place to some dogs in their homes. Bear the expenses of their vaccination, training, and treatment. No one becomes a well-wisher of animals by feeding them stale chapatis." Another user said, "Why should anyone put the life of their three-year-old child in danger just because someone is showing sympathy for stray dogs? It's a simple matter."
A user wrote, "Ask those who work on night shifts, how is the menace of stray dogs in Delhi-NCR. I love dogs, but it is important to stop this problem. I support the Supreme Court's decision."
On the other hand, some people are calling this order cruel. A user wrote, "This decision of the Supreme Court is wrong. Humans being at the top of the food chain is just a coincidence. We do not have the right to eliminate other species. This decision is not only cruel, but also ignores the basic understanding of biology."
Another user said, "This decision is a death sentence for every dog in every street of Delhi. We all should raise our voice against it."
What has the court said in the order?
The Supreme Court has ordered the municipal bodies of Delhi-NCR to prepare shelters for at least 5,000 dogs in 6 to 8 weeks. These shelters should have adequate staff for sterilization and vaccination, CCTV surveillance, and facilities for future expansion.
The court also said that there will be no scope for abandoning the dogs. Also, instructions have been given to start a helpline for dog bite complaints. The court clearly said, "All stray dogs, whether sterilized or not, should be removed."
The municipal bodies have been given the freedom to do this work in their own way, and if needed, a special force can also be formed. The court warned that contempt proceedings will be initiated against those who obstruct this order.
