‘I Just Took One Step At A Time’: Park Eun-bin Gets Emotional About Success | WATCH

The Supreme Court has refused to stay its earlier order directing the removal of stray dogs from public institutions such as schools, hospitals and colleges, citing public safety concerns. The apex court observed that governments have failed to effectively implement the Animal Birth Control (ABC) Rules, 2023, resulting in what it termed an alarming situation across the country. It warned that non-compliance could lead to contempt proceedings against municipal and state officials. The court further stated that the State cannot remain a mute spectator when citizens face risks from stray dog bites, calling it a violation of fundamental rights and rule of law. It directed every district to establish at least one ABC centre and asked High Courts to monitor implementation through suo motu cases. The court also clarified that no criminal action should be taken against officials implementing its orders.
