BBMP to install microchips in stray dogs in the city, project challenged in HC

The Hindu

The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike has decided to install microchips in all stray dogs in the city. Following this, BBMP took up a pilot project to install microchips in stray dogs in Mathikere and Malleswaram in September 2024. Nevina Kamath of Action for Animal Justice, a civic group, one of the petitioners before the High Court, said that the rules mandate the installation of microchips only to pet dogs and not stray dogs, and extending it to stray dogs was “illegal”. However, Mr. Kishor said that while the rules stipulate microchips for pet dogs, it doesn’t bar from installation of microchips in stray dogs.
