GHMC launches birth control for strays

August 24, 2017 12:36 am | Updated 12:37 am IST - HYDERABAD

Blue Cross of Hyderabad, in collaboration with GHMC, launched its model animal birth control programme here on Wednesday.

According to Blue Cross, the programme will focus on reducing stray dog population in Miyapur, located in GHMC West. The model initiative is set to incorporate the Swacch Bharat mission, with an aim to tackle stray population by reducing garbage available for dogs to thrive.

“Human garbage attracts and breeds stray animals across India. Our stray dogs issues cannot be solved until communities cooperate with GHMC to take up garbage disposal responsibly,” said BCH Chairperson, Ammala Akkineni, adding that funds have been raised to focus efforts in one GHMC circle.
