Delhi Takes Action: Stray Dogs Cleared from Streets Ahead of G20
In preparation for the G20 summit in Delhi, authorities are rounding up hundreds of stray dogs and moving them to shelters, along with previous efforts to clear slums and scare away monkeys. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi denies a direct link to the summit, stating that the dogs are being picked up "only on an urgent need basis," but ambulances used for the roundup display "On Duty G-20" boards. Animal activists criticize the inhumane capture methods and argue that feeding stray dogs would create a positive impression of the country for delegates. The captured dogs are being tracked and will be released back to their original locations after the summit.
