The Keralam government has approved standard operating procedures (SOP) for mercy killing of rabid, incurably ill or demonstrably dangerous stray dogs. The SOP, approved recently, relies on the Supreme Court's Order in May this year allowing euthanasia in such cases.

The fact that a video of a woman simply going about her day can spark political hysteria tells you everything about the fragile, regressive mindset behind it. But I’m not surprised! What else can you expect from followers of a leader with a track record of deeply derogatory remarks against women?
For the record: the woman in that video is not me. But even if it were, why should it matter?
Why are a woman’s clothes, appearance, or joy still treated as matters for public trial?
When they can’t challenge us on our policies, governance, or track record, they resort to manufacturing narratives about personal lives of leaders and their family members. Misogyny is the oldest weapon of those who have nothing substantive to positively contribute.
And, To the woman in the video, dragged into this simply due to a passing resemblance: I’m sorry. You look stunning, and I hope you keep living on your own terms (and loving those highlights! ✨).
First they put AC in malls and I did not speak out because I go to malls,
Then they put AC in movie theaters, i did not speak out, because I go to the theaters
Then they put AC in metro rail, i did not speak out, because I use the metro
Then they finally put AC in city buses, I finally spoke out because I don't take the bus

The irony!
Some raising concerns about policy continuity after Tamil Nadu election are the same voices downplaying current govt because discussions on upcoming projects began under previous govt.
That IS policy continuity.
