The Municipal Corporation of Delhi counsel said it is following the ABC Rules and, as far as the G20 Summit was concerned, the process to release the captured strays has already been initiated. “In light of the aforenoted submissions, the respondent authorities are directed to ensure strict compliance with all the provisions prescribed under the ABC Rules relating to the capture and release of street dogs,” said a bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Sanjeev Narula in an order dated September 11. In her petition, Santiago raised concern with respect to allegations of the inhumane way the MCD was “removing street dogs” for the G20 Summit in “blatant violation” of the ABC Rules.
