India's top court orders officials to move stray dogs to shelters in Delhi - BBC News
"Most Indian cities currently do not have even 1% of the capacity [needed] to rehabilitate stray dogs in shelters," said Nilesh Bhanage, founder of PAWS, a prominent animal rights group.
"If the court and the authorities actually want to end the menace, they should focus on strengthening the implementation of the existing regulations to control dog population and rabies - they include vaccination, sterilisation and efficient garbage management."

Animal welfare groups, however, have voiced strong concerns over the court’s directive. They said that the timeline set up by the court was unrealistic. “Most Indian cities currently do not have even 1% of the capacity [needed] to rehabilitate stray dogs in shelters,” said Nilesh Bhanage, founder of PAWS, a prominent animal rights group.

Animal rights activists believe the deadline is unrealistic. According to PAWS founder Nilesh Bhanage, existing shelters in Indian cities cover less than 1% of the required capacity. He believes the solution lies in strengthening vaccination and sterilisation programmes, as well as improving waste management systems.
