Janhvi-Varun: Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Dhawan were upset with SC's decision regarding stray dogs, and expressed their protest by posting

The recent order of the Supreme Court to remove stray dogs from the streets of Delhi-NCR and send them to shelter homes has sparked a new debate everywhere. This decision of the court has now become a cause of debate across the country. Especially, Bollywood celebrities are openly coming out in opposition to this decision.

Bollywood raised its voice for animals.

Bollywood actresses Janhvi Kapoor and actor Varun Dhawan have expressed their displeasure on social media, calling this order cruel and unfair. Janhvi shared a petition in her Instagram story and wrote that these animals living on the streets are not just stray dogs, but they are a part of our society.

Janhvi Kapoor shared the post.

In this appeal of Janhvi, it was said that, 'These are the same dogs who wait for biscuits outside the tea shop every morning, who guard the shops throughout the night, who welcome the children by wagging their tails when they return from school. These are the creatures who give affection even in this ruthless city.'

Avoiding the problem is not the solution.

Janhvi's appeal also mentioned that the solution to every problem is not incarceration. Removing animals from the streets and putting them in shelter homes is neither a practical solution nor an ethical one. Instead, measures like large-scale sterilization, vaccination, community feeding zones, and adoption campaigns should be taken.

Varun Dhawan also expressed displeasure.

At the same time, actor Varun Dhawan also shared this petition on his Instagram story and opposed the decision. Varun has lived with pets for many years, and he has raised his voice for animal rights earlier as well.

Raveena Tandon has also expressed opposition.

Earlier, Raveena Tandon also gave her opinion on this matter. Talking to HT City, she said, 'It is wrong to blame these poor dogs for the increasing number of stray dogs. If the local bodies had carried out the vaccination and sterilization campaign properly, this situation would not have arisen. The local bodies will have to take responsibility for the stray dogs in their area. Sterilization is the biggest need of today.'

Supreme Court's stand and controversy

During the hearing, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta had said that the safety of children and infants is paramount, and they cannot be put at risk just because some people call themselves 'animal lovers'. This comment has angered organizations working for the welfare of animals and pet lovers.
