SC on stray dogs

India continues to face the growing menace of stray dog attacks. In 2024, India reported over 2.2 million dog bite cases, with more than 500,000 victims under the age of 15. 

In August 2025, the Supreme Court of India ordered the removal of stray dogs from public spaces in the Delhi–NCR region, a move that drew both support and criticism. Animal welfare activists argued for humane population control measures, while citizens demanded safety from increasingly frequent attacks.

The apex court has since clarified that aggressive or rabid dogs must be kept in shelters, while sterilised and vaccinated animals may be released back into their localities if not dangerous.
