Unfortunately, the majority of Indian streets are roiled by obvious disrespect for animal lives. The insensitivity in civil societies is far worse; there, a small number of people who take care of stray animals sometimes encounter extraordinary hostility and scorn.

That’s why animal cruelty incidents routinely make headlines in the media. Particularly in India, where stray dogs are either cared for or severely abused by their human neighbours.
A similar incident happened recently when a video of several youngsters abusing helpless street dogs sparked outrage among a major section of society. The video went viral on various platforms and has become a talk of the town with many people reacting to it. So, let’s find out more about it:
Video Of The Killing Of 40 Stray Dogs Explained
In collaboration with @oneworldnewscom, user @niharikakashyap1994 published a viewer-sensitive video on Instagram. It appears to be a segment of CCTV footage taken in Delhi’s Mandawali neighbourhood.
Even though the video was just released a few days ago, there has already been a significant outrage from those who are asking that the perpetrators face harsh punishment.
The footage, which was taken at night, depicts three youths entering an alley while carrying sticks. Unprompted, they begin brutally thrashing a bunch of sleeping dogs.
40 dogs have supposedly been slaughtered by the young people in this incident. Regarding the occurrence, Delhi Police has been implicated, and appropriate action is required against them.
So far, not a single perpetrator has been detained in this case and police are still trying to find them.
More About Dog Laws In India
According to the 1960 Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, street dogs are protected by the law. Removal or relocation of dogs is prohibited by the Animal Birth Control (Dogs) Rules, 2001.
Government employees who hurt animals are subject to special sanctions, according to an office memo from 2006 (OMG).
The Delhi High Court has detected a rise in the flouting of these laws in June 2021. According to Justice J. R. Midha, widespread erroneous or mistaken ideas that all street dogs contain the rabies virus can lead to the harsh maltreatment of stray animals.
The Court had argued that dogs had a legal right to be treated with decency, empathy, and respect. As a result, every citizen, including governmental and non-governmental groups, has a moral obligation to safeguard them.
