The corporation should investigate the claims by the agency about the sterilization figure.""The sterilization of street dogs is followed as per the Supreme Court guidelines. Annually 5,000 to 6,000 dogs are sterilized in Vadodara. In 2014 there were 40,000 street dogs and in 2022 the population is around 20,000. The corporation is trying its best to control the dog menace and make the city safe for citizens," said Dr Hitendra Patel, Chairman of VMC Standing Committee.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
