Stray dogs attack: ‘Strays at Jalahalli Air Force Base were starving, nobody fed them’

The Hindu  

Days after a 76-year-old senior citizen was attacked by a pack of stray dogs in Jalahalli, a fact-finding committee led by animal rights activists found the dogs were hungry as they were not fed properly and there were alleged lapses in the implementation of Animal Birth Control rules. However, the fact-finding committee that visited the area where the incident occurred said that the dogs on the premises of the Air Force Base were not receiving food from any human source. “BBMP has made no efforts to raise awareness about feeding stray dogs or implement directives on feeding outlined in the Animal Birth Control Rules, 2023. However, these efforts have been reportedly absent at the Jalahalli Air Force Station, where conditions remain dire for the animals,” the report said.
