Friendicoes pauses rescue operations in Delhi due to space and funds crunch

Hindustan Times  

With a capacity to shelter just a little over 400 dogs, Friendicoes, the animal NGO in Delhi’s Defence Colony, has hit pause on their rescue missions, due to a massive space crunch. We are functioning on almost six months of credit from our suppliers and there are no more funds to fall back on,” said Geeta Seshamani, vice-president, Friendicoes. Apart from feeding stray dogs, rescuing injured ones, taking on abandoned ones, Friendicoes also lent a helping hand when the Yamuna river rose to dangerous levels this year, leading to eviction of those living near the river. Within the next couple of years, we recovered and spread our operations to Gurugram as well as Noida, and started an initiative to feed street dogs in 2019,” said Seshamani.
