- •Supreme Court heard the stray dog case, aiming to balance concerns of victims and animal lovers.
- •Senior advocate Kapil Sibal argued for stray dogs, advocating for sterilization and the CSVR (Capture, Sterilize, Vaccinate, Release) model.
- •Sibal's claim of never being bitten by a dog led a Supreme Court judge to interject, saying, 'You are lucky!'
- •SC reiterated its November 7 order to remove stray dogs from schools, hospitals, and other institutions, ensuring captured dogs are not released in the same location.
- •Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Karnataka have not yet filed compliance affidavits regarding the court's directives.
