MCD refutes Cong charge that stray dogs were picked up from Delhi roads in cruel manner

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Saturday refuted the allegation made by the Congress that stray dogs were picked up in a cruel manner in view of the G20 Summit and termed it “misinformation”.

It said the dogs that were picked up from the roads of the national capital have been kept in proper care and no cruelty or harm has been caused to them.

“It’s high time to say NO TO MISINFORMATION. The video shared here is short on credibility and authenticity. MCD assure one and all that the dogs are picked up on ‘urgent need’ basis and are kept in proper care with medical and other facilities. No cruelty or harm was caused,” the civic body said from its official handle on X.
