NEW DELHI: A day after it directed the permanent relocation of stray dogs from Delhi-NCR streets to shelters, the Supreme Court on Tuesday issued a circular mandating complete disposal of leftover food inside its court complex to prevent animal bites.The communication underscored a “significant” increase in the instances of stray dogs roaming in the apex court corridors and inside the lift in the Supreme Court premises.”All leftover food items must be disposed of exclusively in properly covered dustbins. Under no circumstances should food be discarded in open areas or uncovered containers. This measure is crucial to prevent animals from being attracted to and scavenging for food, thereby significantly reducing the risk of bites and maintaining hygiene standards. Your cooperation in implementing this directive is essential for the safety of all,” the circular said.
