Kottayam: Protesting the stray dog menace in a barbaric manner, youth activists of a Kerala-based party allegedly killed around 10 canines, tied a few to a pole, and took them through town.
The police said it had registered a case against 15 activists of Youth Front (M), an off-shoot of Kerala Congress (M) led by former state minister KM Mani, under section 429 (committing mischief by killing the animals) of the Indian Penal Code. The activists, protesting against the increasing stray dog menace in the state and Union minister Maneka Gandhi&rsquo;s stand on the issue, displayed the dead dogs in front of the Head Post Office here on Monday.
Accusing Gandhi of adopting a negative approach towards the menace, the activists also sent letters to her asking her to change her stand. Youth Front (M) state president Saji Manjakkadambil said they decided to kill the stray dogs as they were posing a big threat to people in Kottayam.
Gandhi has criticised the government&rsquo;s proposal to take stern measures, including culling, to check the continuing stray dog menace which came into sharp focus recently following an elderly woman&rsquo;s death after being attacked by street dogs.
