What followed the fear-heavy coverage wasn’t just panic, it was cruelty.
Reports of abuse and violent reprisals against street dogs emerged from Pune, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Telangana, Ranchi, Jaipur, Noida, and many other cities.
When narratives inflame fear, real harm follows. This is the cost of irresponsible reporting.

The current crisis around street dogs didn’t emerge in a vacuum.
Media framing amplified fear, sidelined facts, and ignored expert context — and dogs paid the price.
This is a media accountability moment.

May every one of you find a dog, hopefully adopt one, that will not go to sleep until she is wrapped in a T-shirt that smells like you, and another who can make eye contact with you for hours. Blessing beyond blessings.

VIDEO | On stray dogs case in Supreme Court, advocate Divyam Khera says, "The court took the cognisance of the fact that today, essentially, what we are facing is the failure of the municipality. In the last 25 years, they have not done the sterilisations. Had sterilisations taken place as claimed by municipalities that they have done, there would be no dogs in the streets today."

#WATCH | Delhi | People protest at the India Gate against the latest SC order to remove all stray dogs from the premises of educational institutions, hospitals, bus and railway stations.

[Adv. Divyam Khera @DivyamKhera]

To control the population of dogs, why don’t the municipalities simply focus on sterilising them? Why don’t first focus on removing corruption in sterilisation programs? That is the safest and most humane way to reduce the dogs on the streets.

Please do as you say because it is in your power to change the laws and send a message to everyone that cruelty to animals will not be tolerated. So this coming parliament session, change the law! @narendramodi @PMOIndia #AmendPCA #NoMore50

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

At Vantara, I saw an elephant which was the victim of an acid attack. The elephant was being treated with utmost care. There were other elephants too, which were blinded and that too ironically by their Mahout. Another elephant was hit by a speeding truck. This underscores an important question - how can people be so careless and cruel? Let us put an end to such irresponsibility and focus on kindness towards animals.

[santana khurana @san85293]

🐘 Let's not forget, prevention is always better than cure. Stronger laws are needed to prevent animal cruelty. @NarendraModi Ji @PMOIndia it's time to #AmendPCA Act & implement strict penalties for those who harm innocent #animals #NoMore50

True passion for animal welfare is demonstrated by strong laws to protect them. @NarendraModi ji @PMOIndia let's #AmendPCA Act now and put an end to #animal abuse across #India. #NoMore50

Delhi deserves a Government that can provide a safe and healthy environment for its human and animal citizens.

We will vote for a party that champions kindness.
We will vote for a party that stands firmly against cruelty.

Please hear this appeal from the citizens of India and include a provision to #stopanimalrape in BNS (replacement for the Indian Penal Code) @AmitShahOffice @narendramodi

[Mukul jee 🇮🇳 @imukuljee]

Dear @AmitShah ji, the link between cruelty to animals and violence against humans is well-established. In light of this, the inclusion of a provision to #StopAnimalRape in Bharatiya Nyaya (Second) Sanhita (BNS), 2023 is crucial. @HMOIndia @PIBHomeAffairs

[santana khurana @san85293]

A great reminder that dogs have been our loyal companions for thousands of years!
And today, as headlines scream "stray dog menace", a reminder that the solution lies with us – feeding, sterilisation, vaccination and above all, kindness. There is no other way #maitribhavna

[Historic Vids @historyinmemes]

The Romans created tombs for their dogs and gave them epitaphs to remember them by. One such inscription read: "I am in tears, while carrying you to your last resting place as much as I rejoiced when bringing you home with my own hands 15 years ago."

The Ancient Greeks and Romans believed that it was essential to have a good dog. They pop up everywhere in Ancient Roman and Greek literature, art, and mythology. The gates to the underworld were guarded by a three-headed dog, Zeus himself was guarded as an infant by a faithful golden dog named Laelaps, and Homer's hero, Odysseus, wept tears of joy when his old dog, Argus, recognized him after many years away. Dogs were used as guards, hunting companions, and even in battle, but they were also part of the family.

The epitaph on one dog grave that was discovered reads: "To Helena, foster child, soul without comparison and deserving of praise."

It's human nature to imagine our dogs have a voice, and the owner of one Ancient Roman dog took this tendency literally to the grave: "Thou who passest on this path, If haply thou dost mark this monument, Laugh not, I pray thee, though it is a dog's grave. Tears fell for me, and the dust was heaped above me By a master's hand," their dog's grave reads. Another's tells the visitor how much his owner loved him in his "own" words: "This is the tomb of the dog, Stephanos, who perished, Whom Rhodope shed tears for and buried like a human. I am the dog Stephanos, and Rhodope set up a tomb for me.

Not every ancient dog tomb is so fanciful. A simple yet heartfelt epitaph reads: "Myia never barked without reason, but now he is silent."

Right now, at this moment,

Supporting Palestinians doesn't mean supporting Hamas; supporting them means supporting Jews in Germany; supporting them means supporting Blacks under Whites; and supporting them means supporting Indians under British.

Roles matter, not identities.
