Kozhikode
The Kozhikode Corporation remains helpless as stray dogs rule the major streets in the city round the clock, unleashing terror among local people, especially children. There has been a series of incidents in the past two months of stray dogs attacking people, resulting in at least 50 being hospitalised. Motor accidents caused by dogs running across the road have become common too. The State Human Rights Commission recently pulled up the corporation, asking it to control the stray dog menace.
"What are we supposed to do? We are doing everything that is legally possible", said S. Jayasree, Health Standing Committee Chairperson of the corporation.
