Sr Adv Percival Billimoria: It's nobody's case... ... Stray Dogs Case : Live Updates From Supreme Court Hearing

Sr Adv Percival Billimoria: It's nobody's case that dogs should be on streets. Why are they on streets? Because ABC has not been conducted in an effective manner. A PIB report on 1 April 2025 says intensive implementation of ABC programme is the only rational and scientific solution to overpopulation of street dogs. This is the view of GoI. Why has ABC not worked - handling of ABC, under capacity, corruption

Bench: Tell us something new, this has been argued

Billimoria: There's no census. How does one know the population?

Bench: Also argued

Billimoria: We suggest appointing of a Committee chaired by ld. AG. Terms of reference should include census of stray dogs. We cite scientific studies of Rajasthan cities, where population of stray dogs has come down

J Mehta: How do you arrive at that figure when there has been no census? Totally unrealistic.
