Many users complained that the street dogs became violent, as such attacks are frequently observed in many areas. A user wrote, “Loving animals for love and tending to them on a leash is one thing, but to contribute to the multiplication of stray dogs in the name of love is nonsense. The BBMP should impose heavy fines on the dog feeders unless they are ready to own them inside a private area.”
A second user said, “Yes it’s a serious threat I find every lane there’s a group of stray dogs I have seen them attacking people on the road it’s high time BBMP/ govt find a solution to save life of innocent people.”
