Around 150 people gathered outside a dog shelter home in Delhi's Rohini Sector 27 on Friday night, protesting, alleging mistreatment. Protestors claimed that several dogs were dying due to improper care and demanded immediate intervention.

India’s Supreme Court has ordered the release of all stray dogs that were removed from New Delhi streets after sterilization and immunization following an increase in the number of people who were bitten by dogs.

The countless stray dogs that wander India’s capital and environs have been granted a reprieve, after outcry over a court order to round them up.
