Drive to sterilise stray dogs launched

The City Corporation has launched a special drive to sterilise stray dogs in the city. The week-long drive has been taken up based on requests from the councillors and the public seeking steps to curb the stray dog menace, Corporation Commissioner V.P. Thandapani said in a release. Steps have also been taken to identify stray rabies-infected dogs and remove them from the city, he said. Earlier, Mr. Thandapani inspected the facility at Marakkadai where the sterilisation of dogs was being done. City Engineer S.Raja Mohamed and Executive Engineer S.Arunachalam were present.
