Stray Dogs & Society: Supreme Court Verdict, Compassion, and the Way Forward
The recent Supreme Court order on stray dogs has sparked one of India’s most pressing debates, safety versus compassion. While citizens fear rising bites, animal lovers emphasize coexistence. At SAMVAAD, in dialogue with Rajat and Radikha (Bezubaan Saathi Animal Trust), we explore why eradication is not the answer. Instead, structured, humane solutions like community databases, local shelters, and adoption drives can help India balance public safety with compassion, ensuring that stray dogs remain part of our ecosystem, not casualties of it.
