Amicus Sr Adv Gaurav Aggarwal: Remaining 4 states... ... Stray Dogs Case : Live Updates From Supreme Court Hearing [Day 2]

Amicus Sr Adv Gaurav Aggarwal: Remaining 4 states have now filed their affidavits. 16 states are done, 7 are left. I will submit revised note

Sr Adv CU Singh: With regard to SOP of Animal Welfare Board, 4 big states have filed formal objections. It might be of relevance. Amicus may confirm...In Delhi, there is rodent and monkey menace also. What happens when there's abrupt removal of canines - rodent population shoot up. They are disease carriers. Canines maintain balance

J Mehta: Is there a correlation? In a lighter vein, dogs and cats are enemies. We should promote more cats, since they are enemies of rodents. We have not directed removal of every dog from street. They have to be treated as per rules

Singh: Let dogs be regulated in manner which has proved efficacious - sterilization and re-release in same area

J Mehta: How many dogs each hospital should have, tell us? beside each bed?
