The order was issued in response to a rising number of dog bite incidents, rabies cases, and other connected fatalities.

Ram Gopal Varma thinks dog shelters cannot solve the problem

However, the director also expressed that shelters will become an issue. He posted, "In the open streets, diseases disperse. In a shelter, they will fester... One infected dog in a shelter can wipe out hundreds." He raised questions about the maintenance of the shelters and the money required for the same. He wrote, "For feeding 8 crore dogs in India, even if you spend just Rs 20 a day per dog, that's Rs 1600 crore per day.

Who pays? Dog lovers on Twitter? Or taxpayers who are already overburdened?"
