These pictures are from yesterday from downtown Srinagar where a dog investigates its poisoned brother, and walks away. The name of the photographer is being withheld on request. Even as AWBI kept tom-toming about the ABC MOU with SMC and SKUAST it is confirmed now that dogs are being killed on the streets of Srinagar. Earlier pictures had shown bodies of dead dogs loaded in an SMC truck.
Yesterday in an alarming newspaper report we got to know that the Srinagar High Court had ‘…on Friday directed the state Chief Secretary, Madhav Lal to appoint an expert committee to explore possibilities other than dog sterilization which could be implemented to get rid of the dog menace..” More alarming has been the information that no lawyer from AWBI was present in the court hearing when this order was given!
