Betreff: Dog killings started and stopped in Chintamani

Dear all,

Today Chintamani, a place in Karnataka, started killing dogs again. Ms Radha

from the organisation ASRA, went there and after a while when the latest

supreme court stay order was served to the authorities, the killing was

immediately stalled. Even though such killings will have to stop, as nobody

can go against the supreme court order, yet it is advised that before even a

single life is lost, we should take the responsibility of appraising the

local municipal corporations, RWAs, state governments of this stay. It is

our moral obligation. Had this notice been sent earlier, many dogs would not

have lost their lives. So please take a copy of this order and along with a

cover letter explaining the stay, kindly serve it to your local body in your

city before they start killing.

Its a shame if a single dog looses its life after this stay aganst killing

has been given to us as a boon. Many municipal corporatiojns do not know

about this stay. Please give a copy of this stay to your local police

station in case any Resident or resident welfare association of your

locality threaten to kill dogs. Despite these reminders people write to us

crying that dogs have been killed in their areas, even after the copy of the

order was circulated around in mass. All it takes is a little effort to

avoid such incidences.
