During the hearing on a petition related to stray dogs on Wednesday, the Supreme Court made a significant observation regarding a statement by a lawyer. The Supreme Court commented on an argument made by advocate Vandana Jain, stating, "When we talk about animal lovers, it includes all animals. Whether I want to keep an animal in my house or not is my discretion."

 

 

"What if someone brings a buffalo into society tomorrow?": Supreme Court

The Supreme Court commented, "The same applies to gated communities. Whether dogs should be allowed to roam in a gated community or not is something the community has to decide. Let's say, 90 percent of the residents feel it will be dangerous for children, but 10 percent insist on keeping dogs. Someone might bring a buffalo tomorrow. They might say they need buffalo milk."

 

 

Gated communities should be able to decide on dogs; there should be a provision for: Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court commented that there should be a provision under which gated communities can make a decision through voting. Advocate Vandana Jain said, "We are not against dogs. We have to consider the danger posed by dogs and public safety. There is a population of 62 million dogs, and the situation is getting out of control." The hearing will continue tomorrow.

 

 

Supreme Court makes important observations.

During the hearing, the Supreme Court questioned the petitioners' arguments, asking, "Can dogs be taught not to bite anyone? How will anyone know which dog is in a mood to bite or not?" The Supreme Court said that animal lovers should feed the dogs in shelters.

 

 

During the hearing on December 18, 2025, the Supreme Court adopted a firm stance. Responding to an objection that some rules framed by the Delhi Municipal Corporation were "inhuman," the court had said that a video would be played at the next hearing and the question would be asked, "What exactly is humanity?"
