... am told to call. Various combinations of this dance ritual ensue. 10 emails I send in the thread are answered by 7 different people (presumably not bots). What they have in common – none reads the previous emails. Therefore we periodically return to square one.

Anyone remotely sensible and practical at Eureka Forbes? Have been suffering futile and fruitless correspondence with a string of customer care folks who are clueless and don't even have the wisdom to escalate when they are out of their depth.

EurekaForbes makes multiple blunders in data entry, getting my name & other details wrong in multiple places. I email the correct details. Am told this is sensitive info, so should call. I call. Dictate everything carefully. More errors appear. I write again...

@nandinisundar @IUFAR2023 @Anjmeh @Sydusm @joBeeGeorgeous Oh, encourage the let dogs to socialise with the strays. You’ll be surprised how often friendships develop, or at least acceptance.

@nandinisundar @IUFAR2023 @Anjmeh @Sydusm @joBeeGeorgeous Animal Birth Control is the best way to control populations. A sterile stray is way better than no stray, since the latter vacuum will fill up rapidly.
Support ABC initiatives by individuals and NGOs, often at their own expense. Hold MCD to account for fulfilling their mandate.

If you need a beacon, visit a village (yes, even an urban Lal Dora village in Delhi). See how animals are loved, respected, cared for, but not feared. See how children learn early to befriend animals, allow them their space and dignity.

Think about your choices. What is the right and honourable thing to do? Gang up and take a dishonourable, cowardly path, or stand up for the weak, the oppressed? Are we to be a nation of brave hearts or nation of cowards who prey on the defenceless.

The problem is a poverty of heart, a drought of generosity, an addiction to hatred, and the unbearable conceit of believing that the earth was created for exclusive human comfort. Pride goeth before a fall.

The Dalai Lama was right when he said a time will come when objects are given more value than living beings
The rich don't want their fancy cars scratched by starving, undernourished & hurt street dogs it seems
Rather than feeding strays, they want them locked up

Stray dogs show dignity, patience, loyalty, courage, and tolerance. All qualities missing in the cowards who gang up to bully not just the animals but the heroes who step up to help and do the work that the government should be doing.

Do you feed pigeons? Scatter flour for ants? Feed animals as part of Shrardh? Put out rice for birds during Pongal? Look for cows to feed and gain merit? Where exactly does it say that your god, who appears in all living things, is not in dogs?

Are you really at risk of rabies? Your chances of catching it are less than 1 in 2.5 lakhs. Chances of dying in an accident is 30 times that. Of being killed by a human 5 times that. Yet, all this hysteria about stray dogs. Don't be fooled.

[Sridhar @onesridhar]

Do not succumb to attempts to drive a wedge between citizens, labelling some as dog-lovers and some as dog-haters. If in doubt, just consult with your humanity, your traditions. Our great culture is built on compassion.

At night, human guards are here and there, patrolling, and can easily be evaded by a determined intruder. Our community dogs, on the other hand, are all over, and very alert at night. They make a difference.

Where does the path of exclusion lead us? Today dogs, tomorrow cats, then pigeons, perhaps… where does it stop? Can we not live in peace with other denizens of this earth? Was the world born with concrete towers? And then we crave greenery!

[Sridhar @onesridhar]

In my 60+ years, at least 50 have been spent meeting, helping, and rescuing strays. Only once have I been bitten without cause. Compare that with people who have never been bitten imagining dire fates and ready to wage war with zero cause.
#SaveIndianDogs #nodogsnovotes

[Sridhar @onesridhar]

Among animals, the fiercest protective instincts are reserved for their young. Yet, female dogs who have given birth trust us to meet and handle their children, and eventually take them away to be adopted. How menacing!
#SaveIndianDogs #nodogsnovotes

[Sridhar @onesridhar]

Dogs squabble among themselves, as is their nature. Rarely, they bite a human. Humans squabble among themselves, and quite often hurt a human. So why not 'human menace'?
#SaveIndianDogs #nodogsnovotes

[Sridhar @onesridhar]

‘Stray dog menace’. A scary phrase cooked up to scare. you. Like 'child lifters' gets innocents lynched in rural India. Try 'community dogs population problem'. That respects your courage and doesn't treat you like a gullible fool.
