surprising to hear that 240 dog-bite cases have been reported in a matter of
a little more than one year. in Manasagangotri, the campus of University of
Mysore, I hadn't heard of any dog-bite case. but there were many dogs near
our hostel and a real hurdle for my mobility. since I was the lonely VI
person in the hostel, I thought of giving a representation to the university
administration for curbing the number of those dogs. but my friend made me
cool down.

Nice efforts. follow it to its logical conclusion. However, before
arguing with university authorities and mcd it is to be noted that the
animals have as much a right to inhabit the areas they were born in as
we do. Needless to say that these street dogs are not the exception of
our Indian laws.
As per our Indian laws, street dogs cannot be beaten or driven away.
They can merely be sterilized in the manner envisaged in the Animal
Birth Control (Dogs) Rules, 2001 (Rules under Indian Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960), vaccinated, and then returned back to
their original locations.
Keeping in view the above rules and laws, University officials are
right that the birth control is the only solution for this problem.
However, if the dog bites are becoming the frequent phenomenon, such
dogs can’t be allowed to roam freely. Somewhere the university
authorities and MCD will have to strike the balance. If an insane or
harmful person can’t be set free to walk the roads and streets, how
the stray dogs can be allowed to enjoy the free environment while
biting people?
The animals interests can not be protected at the cost of human lives
and human interests!!!
Thanks and regards,

Friends, for the last four years, the differently abled students as
well as the other students of JNU are fighting for the relocation of
dogs from the highly reputed campus of Jawaharlal Nehru University.
Over this four years, the population of dogs has been multiplied at an
alarming rate, thanks to the inefficient administration of JNU! Being
differently abled, we are the badly affected section of this dog
menace. For some dogs, biting is a routine. On the wake of recent dog
bitings, we the differently abled students of JNU have decided to
strengthen our struggle and given the administration an ultimatum to
solve this issue. Last week, the administration had given us in
writing three major promises, and didn’t fulfill any of them.
The JNU visually challenged students forum and Jnu disabled people
association have unanimously taken a decision to go into an indefinite
hunger strike to protest against the policies of administration who
ensures a barrier free campus for the dogs in the campus.
Please give us the moral support… I request the legal experts in the
forum to provide legal advice to us. The administration maintains that
only animal birth control can be done to solve this issue, and they
must be restored to be their original habitats. So we require legal
inputs from you.
