The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has announced plans to set up rehabilitation centers for stray dogs on the city's outskirts, following a directive from the Telangana High Court.


These centers will house aggressive strays and provide food, water, and medical care, monitored by veterinary doctors.

The GHMC is currently preparing a response to the court regarding the implementation of these centers and aims to publicize the project to attract funding and support from those interested in animal welfare.


In addition to this initiative, the GHMC plans to conduct a survey of stray dogs in collaboration with animal welfare organizations, such as the Blue Cross of Hyderabad.


The survey will assess the impact of sterilization programs by comparing current data with previous years.

The corporation is also expanding animal birth control facilities, with three new shelters under construction in Kattedan, Rajendranagar, and Nallagandla.


Residents are encouraged to report issues via GHMC’s helpline at 040-21111111 or 040-23225397.


Furthermore, GHMC has instructed its staff to ensure pet dog owners register their pets and stay informed about anti-rabies vaccination dates.


This initiative marks a significant step in managing stray dog populations and improving animal welfare in Hyderabad.
