Vasai Virar Mahanagarpalika Corporation — Stray Dogs Menace

Address: Thane, Maharashtra

Respected Sir, I Would like to draw your kind attention towards very serious problems of annoying dogs in our area i.e Gokul Township, Virar (West), Dist: Palghar. We are occupant of Viva Vedganga Complex, Gokul Township of above said area. We are highly troubled due to maddening dogs in our street. Due to the dogs even we cannot sleep in night. And Children of our locality are also not safe in such atmosphere. Many of the stray dogs are very Dangerous, they bark on person passing through street without any reason. They have bitten many people unreasonably. Also sometimes, when people buy eatables from the nearby market, stray dogs follow them and sometimes attack or charge to get the food. I request the concerned VVMC officials to kindly take the required action and save us from this peril They are increasing in number day-by-day. And their alarm / horror is also being spread constantly. It has been causing lot of inconvenience to the people of our area. Your good self is requested to look into this matter & take an immediate action which would be appreciated highly. There are 6-7 dogs in each lane in Gokul Township area. They have caused so much nuisance by biting children and chase every single vehicle passing from there. We a Old lady staying in Viva Vedganga Samveda Complex who has adopted a stray dog and keeps it with her without a proper license. She also feeds all the stray dogs in and around our complex attracting all the stray dogs coming for food in the society creating a very unhygienic environment, these dogs come into the society and get themselves relieved of the nature call in the Children Playing Gardens causing danger and exposure to Diseases like Laptospirosis. We cannot go for walks, we cannot come to our home at late nights and there are several issues related to these dogs..thay bark whole night as a result which disturb our sleep. I kindly request to VVMC authorities to take a serious action to avoid any big incident in future. People can even die because of them. Please take these stray dogs out from this area and send to any animal shelter.
