@KnKsnKarn @vishakhakapoo12 @speakshoutroar @DC_Gurugram Sir, I see zero evidence of a bite. People care for them with personal money. They are community animals. Similarly, if you dont like trees, you dont have a right to have them removed. If you care so much, please hold the MCG accountable for not vaxxing/caring for dogs.

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

The SC ruling is barbaric and the AWBI is selling their soul to make up for ignoring ABC rules. We need to repeal draconian laws and focus on vaccinating and neutering and hold MC's accountable #JusticeForIndianDogs

India cannot be a nation where women & feeders are dragged, dogs are beaten & rights are denied. This is cruelty, not governance.

Hold government accountable for a real solution. This is just purely performative and passing the buck. #SaveDelhiNCRDogs

Community dogs aren’t just animals, they’re part of our streets. They’ve guarded shops and homes, wagged tails at strangers, and been our silent neighbours. Removing them feels like ripping pages from India’s story.

This is what we have to do as a taxpayer. As someone who already spends her money to feed, sterilise, vaccinate and shelter. We will not give up on them @CMODelhi @PMOIndia @narendramodi @ndtv #savedelhidogs2025 #SaveDelhiNCRDogs #savedelhidogs

Today’s visuals of dog protests. People of Delhi love their stray animals like their own family members. We would not allow anyone to seize them and throw them into hellholes. Do not test the patience of the public, you may find out who the actual “silent majority” is.

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

It's an important post. its also important to add that the phrase "dog lover" is not an empty one. It encapsulates a lot of individuals, NGOs who have put their time and money into sterilisation, vaccination - and its the MCD that failed. This order hides the failure.

[Siddharth @SidKeVichaar]

Dear Dog haters,

Supreme Court’s Stray Dog Order Could Backfire Badly 🚨

Here's Why 🧵

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

the failure of govt centers to enact ABC rules is what led to this state. We need a successful sterilise + vaccinate program which costs very little compared to this horrible set of concentration camps which are a money sink and set to be disease centers.

[Niharika Dubey @thisfeistygirl]

@CNNnews18 #SaveDelhiDogs 60 days and less than 5cr to sterilise and vaccinate all of them & let them live out their days in peace. Setup a system where breeders and pet owners can't just abandon dogs helpless on the streets.
Help prevent strays instead of sending them to die!!

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

And this is how the situation is "controlled". Animal welfare - while not perfect - is an initiative taken by many with great physical, financial and emotional pain. Where's the trust in system if those meant to protect are mismanaging the MCD and causing mass death.

[Parminder Singh @parrysingh]

5 Countries that tackled the stray dog issue humanely. Lessons India must heed:

Portugal – Nationwide sterilisation & vaccination drives, coupled with adoption incentives. Euthanasia banned for healthy animals.

Netherlands – Achieved “zero stray” status without killing a single dog through mass sterilisation, microchipping, strict breeding laws, and heavy fines for abandonment.

Turkey – Stray dogs vaccinated, neutered, and released back into their territories with food and shelter stations across cities.

Chile – Mobile veterinary units provide free spay/neuter services in rural and urban areas, making prevention accessible to all.

Italy – Regional laws forbid killing strays; dogs are housed in municipal shelters until adoption, with public campaigns to encourage responsible pet ownership.

These countries recognised that compassion and control are not opposites. Humane solutions require patience, resources, and respect for life - not mass culling disguised as ‘protection.’

Congratulations to Dr. Suhail Dhawan on joining us as a 125th Anniversary Fellow. His research on supernovas and gravitational lenses helps to infer the rate the universe is expanding.

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

@AngelaBelcamino This is awesome. Power to you! Also are lmfao on tour?

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

@styrofoamplates @DScol Yeah the brightness seemed like a big limitation. I guess the one risk with a single primary anchor is things like changes based on mcmc convergence or just no cross checks? Would be v keen to know more I should email you instead of tweeting

[Suhail Dhawan @SuhailDaOne]

@styrofoamplates @DScol Oh thanks, my bad. are there plans to do a similar correction to f090w so all three calibrators can be used in anchoring the tip?
