BBMP wake up before it is too late

Pick up a newspaper and every now and then you will find a case of dog bite. Who is to blame? One major reason apart from public negligence and apathy towards why the problem exists in first place, is some over zealous but ill informed BBMP officers. In a game of "I am samarter" these officers employ private vehicles and people to catch dogs from their area and release them in another area or worse kill and dump these dogs. Friendly, neutered dogs are picked up and dumped elsewhere. So while the officer thinks he has "cleaned" his area, he does not know he has created problem not only for his area but the area where he is dumping too. Besides being illegal it is sheer foolishness and seriously endangers the success of ABC. It is not only making innocnet dogs face death sentence but jeopardizes the safety of citizens too. Click these two links to learn why this method does not work, what will work. This fact that relocation and killing neutered dogs is so dangerous and unwanted is common sense.

People have been complaing about relocation, killing of friendly community dogs and the resulting dog bites because of new dogs being introduced in random areas. But then who cares? after all it is a dog's life. Kill and move on. This is what some smart BBMP officials think.

Please read the news article below and report any van besides these picking up dogs. Neutered dogs should not be picked up at all. Even for revaccination, it has to be done on the spot. Please safegaurd your community dogs and in turn make it safer for all the kids in your area too.
