Hyderabad: Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLA T Harish Rao on Friday, November 8, criticised the Telangana government over stray dog deaths and the situation of veterinary healthcare in the state.
Rao alleged that the state government’s negligence led to eight stray dog deaths due to starvation for 10 days recently. He further said that 12 other stray dogs are languishing at an animal welfare centre in Mancherial district.
The former Telangana health minister remarked that the Mancherial municipality authorities have been neglecting 20 other stray dogs which are suffering from poor vision.
In a post on X, Rao said that lack of attention from municipal authorities has led to stray dog deaths, “Laxity of the government authorities has led to the silence of mutes.”
The Siddipet MLA urged the government to take action against those responsible.
