The Animal Birth Control Rules 2023 were released by the central government on April 20, 2023. The Supreme Court’s recommendations in a writ petition involving the Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI) and the People for Elimination of Stray Troubles were taken into consideration when developing these regulations. In its orders, the Supreme Court has emphasised several times that dogs cannot be transported.
Animal Birth Control Rules 2023
According to the recently released Animal Birth Control Rules, local organisations such as municipalities, panchayats, and municipal corporations are in charge of implementing the program’s sterilisation and vaccination of stray dogs. The number of stray dogs can be reduced and animal welfare can be enhanced with the proper use of these regulations.
Municipal corporations must also cooperatively implement anti-rabies and animal birth control programmes. The laws also include instructions for how to resolve disputes between stray dogs and people without moving the pets. The Animal Birth Control programme must be carried out by organisations approved by the AWBI for this purpose, which is one of the conditions stated in the guidelines.
The AWBI website, which will be regularly updated, will provide a list of these organisations. All State Chief Secretaries, the Principal Secretaries of the Animal Husbandry Department, and the Principal Secretaries of the Urban Development Department have already received letters from the Central Government.
