SC Refuses to Intervene in Harassment of Women Dog Feeders, Cites Law & Order

• Supreme Court declined to address allegations of harassment against women dog feeders by anti-feeder vigilantes, stating it's a law-and-order issue.
• The court advised aggrieved individuals to lodge FIRs for harassment, molestation, or assault, emphasizing that these are criminal offenses.
• A three-judge bench, including Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta, and N V Anjaria, noted arguments were 'far from reality' and acknowledged videos of stray dogs attacking people.
• The bench clarified its previous order on stray dogs was specific to Animal Birth Control (ABC) Rules and not a general removal directive.
• The court also refused to discuss derogatory remarks against women or unregulated breeding/exotic imports, limiting the scope to stray dog issues.

Why It Matters: SC directs women dog feeders to file FIRs for harassment, stating it's a law and order matter, not a court intervention.
