The Supreme Court has passed a decision stating that stray dogs considered dangerous on the roads should be placed in shelters. The move has sparked intense debate in media and on social platforms. Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi condemned the decision, while many celebrities took to X to share their compassion for strays.
Several celebrities voiced concerns online, arguing that maintaining stray dogs in shelters would require funds that the government might not commit. Sensing public sentiment and the deep affection people have for stray dogs, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has announced an indie dog adoption day on Sunday, August 17.
The event will take place at Jalagam Vengala Rao Park on Banjara Hills Road No 1 from 6 am to 10 am. The pups available for adoption will be healthy, vaccinated, and dewormed. The aim is to find safe and loving homes for indie dogs.
Indie pups are known for being loyal, playful, and low maintenance. Those who truly care about stray dogs are encouraged to attend the event and welcome an indie pup into their family. This initiative offers a meaningful way to support animal welfare in the city.
