đ¨ LEGAL Warning to Certain Residents of Siddha Galaxia
Itâs extremely unfortunate that some residents of Siddha Galaxia are trying to forcibly remove a super-friendly, vaccinated, and sterilized Indian street dog from the society premises â a place where she has peacefully lived and been cared for.
Let this be a clear and final warning:
đ Under Indian Law, you CANNOT relocate or harm any street dog, especially one that is sterilized, vaccinated, and non-aggressive. Doing so is a criminal offense.
âī¸ Hereâs What the Law Says:
đš Animal Birth Control (ABC) Rules, 2001 & 2023:
đ Sterilized and vaccinated street dogs must be returned to their original place.
â No RWA or resident can forcefully relocate or remove them.
đš Supreme Court Orders (SLP 691/2009 & others):
â
âNo stray dog can be killed or relocated. They have the right to live in their territory.â
đš Constitution of India:
Article 51A(g) â Itâs your fundamental duty to show compassion to animals.
Article 21 â Animals too have the Right to Life and Dignity.
đš Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960:
Section 11 â Any act of cruelty (including illegal relocation or harassment) is punishable by law.
đš Indian Penal Code (IPC):
Section 428 â Harming any animal: 2 years jail
Section 429 â If the animal is killed or seriously harmed: 5 years jail
đļ This Dog is a Part of the Community
She is friendly, vaccinated, spayed, and causes NO nuisance. Instead of cruelty, we should show compassion.
â ī¸ Next Steps (If Harassment Continues):
đ¸ FIRs will be filed under IPC 428/429
đ¸ AWBI & Municipal Authorities will be informed
đ¸ Legal notices will be issued to those involved
đ¸ A petition will be moved in court for harassment and violation of the Supreme Court order
đŦ Compassion is not optional â itâs a Constitutional Duty. Let this post serve as a public legal reminder
