6. LAWS MADE FOR STARY ANIMALS
OF WHICH STILL PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE
7. The Stray feeding guidelines by the Department of Personnel &
Training, Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions,
New Delhi letter no.F.No.30/9/2006-WELFARE dated 26.5.2006,
applicable for:
· Treatment of street dogs by government servants: If any Govt.
Servant indulges in act of cruelty to animals he will be making himself
liable for action under Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act. Besides,
punishment under the Act, he would also make himself liable for
action under CCS (Conduct) Rules for conduct unbecoming of a Govt.
Servant.
· Resident Welfare Associations, citizens and others: Stray
animals are to be dealt with through designated agencies in Govt./local
self-government organizations/ NGO’s etc. Recognised Associations in
Govt. colonies may approach such Institutions for redressal of their
grievances. All the problems of stray animals have to be handled within
the institutional framework available and NO resident association,
recognized or unrecognized, shall take recourse to action on
their own, either themselves or through any person employed by
them like security guards etc.
8. Moreover, there is no law that prohibits the feeding of street animals. Citizens/animal welfare volunteers who choose to do so are in
fact performing a duty cast upon them by the Constitution of India – of showing compassion to all living creatures. Recently, the Animal
Welfare Board of India (AWBI), a statutory body under Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India has framed exhaustive
Guidelines regarding stray dog feeding. These have been placed before and upheld by the High Court of Delhi. The orders passed on
18th December, 2009, and 4th February, 2010 by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi, mandate not only that those street dogs will be fed, but that
they will be fed in order to confine them to the localities/areas that they belong to. Confining them to the localities that they belong to
facilitates area-wise animal birth control, and yearly/annual vaccination.
The Delhi High Court, vide its rulings in 2009 and 2010, have also actually ordered the Delhi Police to protect persons who feed
and care for street dogs, and who are often exposed to the ire of ill-informed, ill-advised residents/administrators of those areas.
The Delhi High Court in its judgement, pronounced on 18.12.2009 and 4.2.2010, says that “it is necessary to bring into record that these
individuals and families who adopt stray animals are doing a great service to humanity as they are acting in the aid and assistance of Municipal
Authorities by providing these animals with food and shelter and also by getting them vaccinated and sterilized. Without assistance of such
persons no local Municipal Authority can successfully carry out its ABC programme”.
The Court has proceeded to say that “the local police and the municipal authorities are under obligation not only to encourage such adoption
but also to ensure protection to such persons who come forward to take care of these animals specifically the community or neighbourhood
dogs so that they are not subjected to any kind of cruelty”, finally, the Court has said “that every individual has the right to live his life in the
manner he wants and it is necessary that the society and the community recognize it”.
Also remember that under the Indian laws, animal cruelty is an offence – under Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
Act, and Section and 429 of the Indian Penal Code – punishable with imprisonment and fine. Likewise, criminal intimidation, and
criminally intimidating animal welfare volunteers is a serious offence under the Indian Penal Code (specifically, Section 503 of Indian Penal
Code read with Section 506 of the Indian Penal Code 1860).

Welfare Associations and Societies on the lawful manner of dealing with street as well as pet dogs can be accessed by clicking here.
Below image is a scanned copy (newspaper advertisement) of a Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) notification, showing the approach of
the M.C.D. with regard to street animals (which is based on the law of the land). This is a 2009 dated advertisement and there have since been
changes in the names of NGOs working with the MCD on doing dog sterilization work in Delhi:
9. Why you should you adopt a stray
???
1. In a perfect world, every dog would have a home and every
home would have a dog. Dogs may not live as long as us, but they
make moments that last for a lifetime, and even beyond. Nobody
can fulfill your life better than a dog.
2. When you were a kid, they followed you wherever you went.
When you cycled, they ran behind. They waited all day for you to
come back from work just to get those loving pats from you.
They have little puppies now. It’s time you bring them home and
give them the same love.
3. Dogs are not objects that you buy for your entertainment, they
are friends you make. Money can buy a dog but not the wag of its
tail. Adopt a stray that actually needs shelter and it would love
you like no one else in the world.
10. WHY SHOULD YOU ADOPT A STRAY
??
4. It doesn’t matter how dogs look. It’s the heart that
counts not the fur. If you’ve ever loved a dog, you’d
know how insensitive it is to objectify them into status
symbols. A stray dog would love you as much as a fancy
Husky or a St. Bernard would, probably even more.
5. Strays have been living in the harshest weather
conditions since forever. Not only are they stronger
than most bred pups, they’re much more immune to
contracting diseases than those ‘so called’ handsome
breeds you see on the internet.
11. Stray animals pray to us all day and night
Their scars are increasing night by night
They cry to us all the time
Then why do we ignore them in this rhyme of life ?
When they never look to us to survive
They ask us why are they not given a life ?
When they love us all the time.
They ask why do we make them cry?
When they try their best to make up to our lives
They ask us why do we consider them shabby?
When this is their way of life
why is there only pain and no light
Why do hate them
When it is their fate to be such
Why they suffer pain?
When there is no fault of them as a whole
Are we humans worse than animals?
As we cannot be humans to these petty animals
