Congress leader Rahul Gandhi praised the Supreme Court’s revised order on stray dogs, calling it a “compassionate approach” that balances public safety with animal welfare. The Court directed that stray dogs be vaccinated and sterilised, then released in the same area, while aggressive or rabid dogs must be sheltered. Feeding on public roads was prohibited, with municipal bodies instructed to create designated feeding zones. Gandhi, known for his advocacy of animal rights, welcomed the humane framework and urged civic bodies to implement it responsibly. His endorsement adds political weight to the ruling, which aims to reduce conflict between communities and stray animals through structured, ethical management. (PC: ANI)
