In this thought-provoking episode of What's Your Mantra, we talk to Meet Ashar, Director of Cruelty Response at PETA India, about the recent Supreme Court order to remove stray dogs from Delhi-NCR. Ashar shares his expert insights on why this approach is flawed and highlights the need for humane solutions.From rabies concerns and community safety to animal rights and adoption, this conversation dives deep into the realities of India’s 1 crore+ stray dog population. Ashar sheds light on why removal and culling don’t work, and why sterilisation, vaccination, and shutting down illegal breeders are the only sustainable solutions. Alongside the stray dog debate, we also touch upon broader animal rights challenges in India—from factory farming to the treatment of working animals.This episode is more than a debate on law—it’s a call to compassion, coexistence, and practical reform for India’s animals and citizens alike.💡 Topics Covered:Why PETA India calls the Supreme Court order unscientific and dangerousThe truth about Delhi’s stray dog numbers and sterilisation ratesRabies, dog bites & why displacement doesn’t solve public health crisesHumane solutions: adoption, sterilisation, vaccination & community careHow illegal breeders and pet shops fuel the stray dog crisisEmotional & social cost of uprooting community dogsOther pressing animal rights concerns in India today
