Supreme Court Revises Stray Dog Order for Delhi-NCR
The Supreme Court changed its mind about what to do with stray dogs in Delhi and surrounding areas.
The original plan was to catch the dogs and put them in shelters.
Now, the court says the dogs can be let go after they get fixed (sterilized) and get rid of any worms.
The government will also set up places where people can feed the dogs.
The goal is to keep both people and dogs safe.
Supreme Court modified its order on stray dogs in Delhi-NCR.
The initial order directed capture and relocation to shelters.
Revised order allows release after sterilization and deworming.
Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) will create feeding points and shelters.
MCD is working on a plan that balances public safety and animal welfare.
