This comes as several media reports have claimed that the mass killing of dogs is being conducted in Kerala after a surge in dog bite cases across the country. Visuals from Kerala show several dogs being slaughtered on the streets, and being hanged from lamp posts.
Over the past few months, India has seen a surge in the number of cases of dogs attacking pedestrians or their own family members. In July this year, a pitbull dog killed his elderly mistress in Lucknow. This incident was discussed across the country.
Later in the year, a pitbull dog attacked a child who had suffered multiple grave injuries and had to get over 200 stitches on his body. Then in Panvel, a video of a German Shepherd dog attacking the delivery boy's private part and injuring him went viral. Meanwhile, in Kozhikode, Kerala, a child was bled to death by a stray dog.
