Civic body told to identify suitable feeding points
A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court has directed the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation to take steps to identify suitable feeding points for community dogs to mitigate the stray dog menace in the Corporation areas.
The Bench comprising Justice A.K Jayasankaran Nambiar and Justice Gopinath P. also directed the Corporation to file a report regarding the measures taken by it in three weeks.
The Corporation submitted that steps were afoot for the construction of a new building replete with all facilities for carrying out ABC (animal birth control) procedures and the structure would be in place within a period of three months. The new facility was being planned since the existing one at Pettah and Vandithadam were deemed inadequate.
