A paid narrative to promote hatred against dogs? That’s what it’s starting to feel like. Not one serious question on why, despite being an almost developed nation, we still struggle with rabies. Not one deep dive into why the government failed to implement nationwide sterilisation and vaccination of street dogs—even though it’s mandated under the 2001 law. These are the real issues. This is where accountability is needed. But that would require real journalism. And maybe that’s the problem—because asking tough questions isn’t as “profitable” as pushing fear-driven narratives. 😷 Time to ask: will media houses like NDTV ever choose courage over convenience? Or are we just going to keep vilifying the voiceless while ignoring systemic failures? 🐾

Soon someone will die due to rabies because they saw a dog on the street! Come on! Animal caregivers and feeders get scratched on a daily basis. I’m sure there has to be a different source of contraction, and I can suggest one: street food made in unhygienic conditions. Many times I have seen rats around there, and rats are carriers of rabies. So you might want to get out of this infatuation with dogs and look for the real cause, because what you are reporting is simply absurd to believe. By that logic, all the dog lovers/caregivers/feeders must be dead in 6 months, right?

The Supreme Court reserved its judgment on the stray dog menace on 29 January 2026. In the 55 days since, reports of rabies deaths have appeared almost daily, many likely uncounted. Why shouldn’t the SC be held accountable for these deaths due to delay in judgement?
