The Uttar Pradesh government has issued a strict order on stray dogs. If a dog bites a human without provocation, it will be kept at an animal centre for 10 days. The dog will also be sterilised and microchipped before release. If the same dog bites a person again without provocation, it will remain in the centre for life. Officials said a three-member committee will decide whether an attack was unprovoked. The order allows adoption, but the owner must give an affidavit not to release the dog on the streets. Legal action will follow if rules are broken. (PC: NDTV)
