Mumbai: Animal lovers who gathered in Ghatkopar East on Sunday evening to protest against plans to shift community dogs from the street, said that they will form their own political party to ensure that animal are protected from forced relocation.
The protestors, who were dressed in black clothing, carried banners that said 'Save Indian Dogs', 'Save the stray dogs', and 'stop relocation'.
Call to Enter Politics for Animal Protection
The protest was organised by the PAL Welfare Foundation. Roshan Pathak of PAL said that animal lovers want peaceful coexistence of humans with other creatures. “Animal cruelty and harassment of animal lovers have been going on for a long time, and every time we ask for assistance from political parties or the government, no assistance is provided because these parties and government officials are only interested in maintaining their assembly seats and power,” said Pathak who said that people who believe in the rights of animals should contest in the elections.
