Public sentiment is deeply polarized regarding the Supreme Court's ruling to remove and relocate stray dogs. A significant portion of commenters criticize the decision as inhumane and indicative of insufficient compassion for animals, while others support it, citing public safety concerns stemming from stray dog attacks. The ruling is perceived by many as a superficial solution that fails to address the broader issue of stray population management, revealing frustrations about societal priorities and governance.

&gt; The Supreme Court on Friday (November 7, 2025) directed all States and Union Territories to ensure the removal of stray dogs from the premises of educational institutions, hospitals, public sports complexes, bus depots, and railway stations, and observed that such canines must not be released back into the same localities after sterilisation.

Like clockwork. Rahul gandhi talks about vote chori and these people do this.

Well stray dogs shouldn't be anywhere on the streets in the whole country. But this couldn't possibly work, why not just get them neutered? And again what does it have to do with SC?

it is easy to pass a verdict on such matters as they will not speak, 

they do not fall in the category of "party funders"  or they don't have godfathers starting with the letter A.

dogs to the bench/panel: har kutte ka din aata hain

Good decision by SC. dog lovers will come, protest and go back home. we general public have to get bitten, get mauled over or killed. specially the kids and elderly. so many cases. if you ask them to adopt 10 dogs each and keep them at home, they will say paisa tu dega?? unka kya hain aao, gyan pelo, kalti maro. bhugatna humlog ko padta hain. koi dog lover puchne nahi aaega if a street dog bites and mauls your child over. your safety is in your hands. BEST DECISION by SC.

watch as the dog lovers force the supreme court to take this decision back too.

housing societies too please. The dogs roam around injured, with diseases, create havoc and multiply like crazy.

Absolutely common sense. Sad that the SC had to step in to give such an order!

Dogs, cows, pigeons....remove every stray animal from public places, what kind of country are we living in where you can't even go for a morning walk without dodging bodily fluids of sick animals?

And what kind of animal lovers want this life for animals?

This is my opinion, so please don't start your stupid argument under this.

​So, according to me, this is not that bad. I mean, street dogs have some good points, but they have more bad points. We clearly see hundreds of cases of people bitten to death by dogs in a year, so yes, it is good because dogs cause more deaths than any other animal. This is the best way to reduce the dog population, to get them into shelters. Now, everyone will comment, 'What about the dogs who didn't do anything?' It's easy, ask people in the neighborhood about the dogs' behavior. 

And Please don't comment on the fact that these dogs were killed, not just put in shelters. I mean, this might be their punishment for killing innocent children I still can't visit my relative's house because some street dogs are always there. Once, I tried to go, and they chased me until I left the colony and it's not like I was running or had something to eat, I was just walking alone.


​Or, I have a better option for everyone who is opposing this, If you say let the street dogs die on the street due to hunger, then why don't you adopt them? It's really not that difficult. My neighbors just adopted a street dog and give the dog the food they eat every day because street dogs can eat normal food—they don't need overpriced dog food. So, adopting a street dog is actually cheaper than buying a purebred one.

India needed a Supreme Court order for this

Nishthefish74

Good measure but this is hard to implement. Most of the stations are open so dogs can re-enter after being removed and they are present at stations because of the food they find from garbage present on the tracks. Until cleanliness is not maintained there is no point of implementing this .

Parth_NB

Good step. Every station I go,I see at least One dog with a missing leg. Railway stations are not safe for dogs.

This is just  to divert the public from voter fraud H bomb allegations by opposition and pollution. bJ p is becoming worse than congress.

Instead of focusing on real issues they are using supreme court to create a nuisance.

Supreme court has so many critical pending cases from years but they don't care about those.

Will never vote again for these idiots.

If Supreme Court orders are required to remove dogs from Railway Stations, Bus stops etc, what are leads and head of institutions doing? 

Don’t they see conditions of platform, toilet, trains, garbage.

Confident_Factor3389

Gr8 step, maybe any shelter homes would be better and make them sterile. People wants them to be on the streets please take them to your home.

And how would that be implemented exactly ?

N bina ticket walo ko train se kon utarega? I think that should be the first priority of railways instead of dogs.

I don't think the Indian state is capable of pulling this off. Street dogs even if removed will just come right back. There is lnt any natural limit to street dog population lol.

Also keeping them in canals is too expensive. The only solution is to neuter them and let them be.

They will do this dog thing

I feel we should not forget animals are also living beings just like us, yes I understand and agree dogs can be dangerous for children and humans but how could you remove them? You’ll just relocate them like things and they’ll just become anyone else’s problem and get tortured all over again until they die, I believe better solution would be actually implementing animal birth control(neutring and sterlizing dogs so they can’t breed more strays) and even euthanising(painless death) dogs if they are too injured or old to survive is way better than being selfish and hurting them. I mean it’s not their fault they are strays it’s we humans who can’t control them(again ABC or giving them a home)

DevilishlyHim

I dont agree with the decision but couple of years ago i was waiting for my train and saw a dog run past me swiftly only to slip and fell onto the tracks under a oncoming train, felt so bad for the little guy and his buddies kept barking &amp; trying to search for him

Now some people will have a problem with that too because it involves stray dogs.

Hari_5555

1. This is a distraction from vote chori obviously.

2. It’s impossible to remove the strays. They will keep re-entering. The only way to do this is to remove all the garbage from the tracks and surrounding areas. So yeah they should focus on clearing the garbage first. Then automatically strays population will come down. But we all know that they won’t do this :)

They are unable to get the toilets on train hygienic, and they are worried about dogs . And how will they barricade all the stations in India . I am completely lost on the logic of this judgement. It clearly looks pressurised.

It needs a supreme court order to carry out basic tasks in this country.

SC can't direct how society lives, else SC should take responsibility of Gunda Elements and cage the whole Gunda family, Also people getting killed in road accidents and cage the entire machinery.
Bharat always have inclusiveness, imposing complete Ban can't solve it. What SC has done on Rape. Shame some SC Judges and NGOs have some illicit connections behind this decision and it should be investigated

They should first remove people spitting gutka and people littering around the station and on tracks.

turtleonrock

The Supreme court should ban gutka selling near stations...

Human_Being-123

Supreme court needs to make plans or allocate a committe to make this happen rather than avoiding situation where people manhandle the dogs cuz of an improper execution

It could be better if this decision came from the government instead of the court. But...
