Gurgaon protests Supreme Court's stray dog removal order
A group in Gurgaon hit the streets this weekend to protest the Supreme Court's recent order to remove stray dogs from public places like schools and hospitals.
Marching from Galleria Market with signs saying things like "No Dog, No Votes" and "Strays Need Care, Not Cages," protesters called for the order to be reversed.
Why people are upset
Animal activists say the new rules are unfair to strays.
Nikita Yadav, an animal rescuer, questioned why dogs should be treated this way, while organizer Sudhir Sachdeva promised more protests until the decision is rolled back.
The November 7 court order tells states to move sterilized and vaccinated dogs into shelters instead of letting them back on the streets—a move that has sparked a lot of debate about how best to handle street animals.
