BJP slams AAP-led MCD over stray dog menace
The Sunday Guardian
|August 13, 2023
Ahead of G20 summit, BJP has criticised AAP for its alleged failure to sterilise stray dogs and control their population.
In the run-up to the G20 summit next month, a war of words has broken out over the Municipal Corporation of Delhi’s (MCD) handling of the stray dog menace, with the Opposition BJP adopting an aggressive approach towards the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for its alleged failure to sterilise dogs and controlling their population which has increased significantly in recent times. Councillors of different parties have blamed each other for the stray dog menace issue. Opposition councillors criticised the MCD mayor for not taking any action over the menace.
BJP leader and former Union minister Vijay Goel joined his party leaders in the MCD and hit out at the Aam Aadmi Party leadership for withdrawing their order to remove stray dogs from a prominent location in Delhi ahead of the upcoming G20 summit. He said MCD municipalities have the responsibility to deal with the stray dog issue, but in Delhi, the civic agency has failed to do it.
