Stray dog attack at international Coach sparks controversy in Capital, authorities at loggerheads

Updated:9 months, 4 weeks ago

Kenya's sprint coach Dennis Mwanzo, was bitten by a dog on the warm-up track at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium during practice on Oct 04 . The incident has again raised questions over the Authorities' handling of the stray dog menace in the National Capital. On two foreign coaches bitten by stray dogs at the warm‑up track of JLN Stadium yesterday, Trustee at People for Animals India, Gauri Maulekhi, said, "The recent incident of dog bite in Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium has only highlighted the fact that MCD has been thick-skinned even despite the directions of the Supreme Court on 22nd August despite the contempt matter that is going against them in the Delhi High Court. The 20 Animal Birth Control (ABC) projects in Delhi are all riddled with corruption. Half of them are not even approved by the Government of India as per the Animal Birth Control rules. The data, the facts and figures are not being made transparent. RTI responses have established that there is gross corruption. Dogs are still being picked up by unscrupulous illegal NGOs and picked up from certain RWAs, only to be dropped elsewhere...This is increasing dog bites because dogs are territorial. If they are picked up from one place and relocated to another place, they tend to get anxious and scared and they fight for their life and that is when incidents occur...The officer in charge of Animal Birth Control in MCD must be suspended and a clean and proper officer who can enforce the law should be put in place..."
