Delhi Stray Dogs Issue: Sentiments or Public Safety?

2025-08-14 41 Dailymotion

On 26 July 2025, in national Capital of India - Delhi, a young girl, Chavi Sharma, tragically died — after being bitten by a rabid dog, she developed rabies symptoms and passed away during treatment. This incident shook even the Supreme Court. <br /><br />🧾 How did the SC take it up? <br />Acting suo motu on a Times of India report — “City hounded by strays, kids pay the price” — the SC called the matter “alarming & disturbing.” <br />The Bench noted: thousands of bite reports come in daily; children and the elderly are most at risk. <br /><br />🏛️ The Court’s order: <br /><br />Remove stray dogs from streets; house them in shelters. <br /><br />Phase 1: Shift 5,000 dogs within 6–8 weeks — direct orders to State, MCD, NDMC. <br /><br />Within 8 weeks, submit shelter infrastructure report — sterilisation, immunisation staff & CCTV mandatory. <br /><br />Set up a helpline; ensure rabies vaccines in all government hospitals. <br /><br />Within 1–2 days, scope extended to NCR (Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad). <br /><br />⚖️ Enforcement: <br />SC warned — anyone obstructing implementation will face contempt proceedings. <br />Clear message: “No sentiments over public safety.” <br /><br /> Medical note: <br />The doctor listed Chavi’s cause of death as “brain infection,” but the family suspected a dog-bite link. At the time of reporting, rabies was not officially confirmed — yet the case became a trigger for urgent judicial intervention. <br /><br />🔎 Judicial follow-up: <br />After massive protests from dog lovers, on 13 Aug 2025, CJI BR Gavai assured that the SC order will be reconsidered. This means higher judicial review, with policy and implementation both under scrutiny. <br /><br />📊 Data (Bhaskar English, 13.08.25): <br /><br />2024 — Delhi: 68k dog-bite cases <br /><br />2025 (ongoing) — Delhi: 26k cases <br /><br />India 2024: 3.7M cases; 54 rabies deaths <br /><br />Survey: 71% say dog attacks are common in their area <br /><br />So Its not about animal rights anymore, but issue of public safety. <br /><br />Quote from the Bench: <br />“All animal activists and lovers — will they be able to bring back the children who have fallen prey to rabies? The situation is grim.” <br /><br />#Delhi #StrayDogs #DogBites #Rabies #SupremeCourt <br /><br />--- <br /><br />Welcome to "The Dal Chawal" Channel! 🙏 <br />Here, we bring you "Straightforward Simple News, Our Way!" 🎙️ <br /><br />We create content on trending topics for audiences of all ages! 🤩 <br />So, follow & subscribe for content that connects, entertains, and maybe even makes you think (& laugh) too! 😆🎭 <br /><br />📣 Collab & Inquiries: thedalchawal@gmail.com <br /><br />📈 Check out our courses 👉 https://thedalchawal.mini.site 🚀 <br /><br />🔥 Struggling with views, reach, subscribers, or followers? <br />Get a 20-minute free consultation 👉 https://www.believemediaworks.godaddysites.com/ <br />(Only once per person & limited-time offer!) <br /><br />🎬 Thinking of building an independent media career? <br />We offer internships!
