@AbhishBanerj If Bengaluru or Delhi “gets the hint,” it should mean building that infrastructure, not rushing into cruel, short-term fixes that create more suffering without solving the root problem.
@urbanmonnk painting all strays as ticking time bombs ignores that most bites happen due to fear, territory, or provocation.
real goal should be creating safer streets and humane management, not just fear-driven blanket removal.
Other countries don’t have stray dogs roaming the streets not because they wiped them out overnight, but because they invested in proper systems decades ago -
- mass sterilization and vaccination programs
- strict pet ownership laws
- well-funded shelters
- adoption networks
- effective waste management to reduce food sources.
@Rnb129 Then to keep your kid safe, why don't you kill all people who drink and drink, who eve teases or create the menace the society.
Very conveniently you said that the dog dies - because you have control over it.
@UnSubtleDesi “Prove your compassion by getting bitten” is not an argument, it’s cruelty masquerading as logic.
Real solutions look like mass sterilization, vaccination, and strict pet ownership
painting all animal lovers as “elite” and disconnected ignores the many who work on the ground in the same communities you’re talking about, running vaccination drives, sterilization programs, and rescues.
The real gap isn’t compassion , it’s in finding solution that protect both people and animals.
@mainbhiengineer The most dangerous thing about dog haters is assuming compassion is a zero-sum game - caring for animals doesn’t mean you stop caring for humans.
You’re comparing cities that built humane, long-term animal control systems decades ago with a city that’s trying to solve the problem overnight by dumping dogs into overcrowded shelters or killing them.
Tokyo or Zurich didn’t get “clean” by treating animals as disposable — they invested in sterilization, adoption, enforcement of pet ownership laws, and community education for years.
If you actually want Delhi to be safer and cleaner, push for a plan that works without cruelty, instead of using “third world” stereotypes as an excuse to wipe strays out.
@Sanket15213 If they didn’t know about rabies before, they definitely do now and still chose to protest.
Maybe that means their point isn’t ignorance, it’s that compassion and public safety can go hand in hand.
@tushar15 If you want to protect your three year old, put all people who drink and drive in jail, put all eve teasers in jail, but no! you would only send innocent dogs away because you have control over them.
