Mumbai: Mar 28 (UNI) Bombay high court on Tuesday held that stray animals are a part of our society and that we have to live with them and care for them.
The observation was made during the hearing of a petition filed by an animal lover lady Paromita Purthan alleging cruelty on the part of the managing committee for restraining her from feeding 18 stray dogs in the society premises of a housing society in suburban Kandivali where she resides. The court also asked the residents of the society to amicably resolve issues over feeding of stray dogs inside the society premises.
A bench of Justices Girish Kulkarni and RN Laddha has asked the RNA Royale Park Cooperative Housing Society in Kandivali West to consider allowing a society member, Paromita Purthan, to feed the dogs in parking area instead of at the society gate till the time they designate a parking spot for the stray animals.
