Stray Dogs Missing in Delhi After G20, Community Efforts Underway to Locate Them.

In the wake of the G20 Summit, a puzzling situation has arisen in Delhi. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) recently declared that they had released all the stray dogs they had captured before the event. However, this move has left many dog feeders, animal enthusiasts, and animal welfare organizations scratching their heads, as they’ve noticed that several dogs are nowhere to be found, prompting grassroots efforts to reunite these dogs with their rightful territories.
According to these concerned groups, the MCD’s approach was quite unconventional. They claim that without any clear records of where these animals originally roamed, the MCD released them at random locations on September 11, causing a state of confusion for both the dogs and their caregivers.
One passionate activist, Gunjan Uppal, stumbled upon an elderly and frail dog named Granny at an Animal Birth Control (ABC) facility in Masoodpur. Gunjan, who had been closely monitoring the ABC units due to concerns about their treatment of animals, shared her discovery, saying, “Some of these dogs had tags, but many were without any identification.” It took her a painstaking four days to locate Granny.
Shashank Malhotra, who has been dedicatedly feeding dogs near the airport terminals since 2019, is on a quest to find nine out of the eighteen missing dogs. He also raised concerns about the lack of proper tagging for these dogs. “Fifteen to sixteen new dogs have mysteriously appeared at the cargo terminal,” Shashank explained, highlighting the bewildering nature of the situation. Dog feeders like Shashank are now coming together through social media channels to collaborate in their search for the missing dogs.
Manni Singh, a dedicated dog rescuer, has also turned to social media to aid in her quest to find the missing dogs. She’s even taken her efforts offline, distributing pamphlets to local chaiwalas with the promise of a ?5,000 reward for any information leading to their recovery.
Divya Puri, a devoted member of the Karanpuri Foundation, an animal welfare group, has been keeping a watchful eye on the situation. She noted, “In total, there are 31 dogs missing from Pragati Maidan and the Airport terminals.” She has gone the extra mile by sharing this list with the MCD caretakers in hopes of a resolution.
Despite the mounting concerns and community efforts, MCD officials remain steadfast in their assertion that all the dogs were released in the same areas they were captured from and that proper tagging was carried out. The mystery of the missing dogs in Delhi continues, leaving those who care deeply about these animals determined to bring them back to their rightful homes.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal unveiled five new Mohalla Clinics, including one specifically catering to women’s health known as a Mahila Mohalla Clinic, within the city on Tuesday. During the event, Kejriwal emphasized the exceptional skills and dedication exhibited by the medical personnel at these clinics, underlining their profound impact on the populace.
Addressing the audience, the AAP national convenor also highlighted that a total of eleven Mohalla Clinics are presently operational in Greater Kailash, attesting to the significant expansion of this initiative.
The recently inaugurated healthcare facilities are strategically situated at Keshopur Sabzi Mandi, Shahbad Diary (housing both a general Mohalla Clinic and the Mahila Mohalla Clinic), as well as Govindpuri and Kalkaji Market. Utilizing their online platform, X (formerly known as Twitter), the party announced that the National Capital now boasts a total of 533 fully operational Mohalla Clinics, with 512 running during the morning shift and 21 catering to patients during the evening hours.
Initiated in 2015, Mohalla Clinics are community health centers that were originally introduced in New Delhi. These establishments offer essential medical services at no cost, encompassing prescription medications, diagnostic tests, and medical consultations.
Extending beyond the capital, the AAP-led Punjab government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, celebrated the eve of Independence Day, August 14, by inaugurating 76 Mohalla Clinics throughout the state. This step showcases the positive trajectory of the Mohalla Clinic initiative beyond its New Delhi origins.
