- The Guwahati Municipal Corporation (GMC) launched the “Sahajeevan” project after the Supreme Court directives to shift stray dogs from public places to shelters.
- The project focuses on relocating dogs safely, vaccinating them, and promoting human–animal coexistence.
- Since 2014, GMC has sterilised 24,016 dogs under the Animal Birth Control (ABC) programme.
- But the dog bite cases in Assam rose from 90,000 (2013) to 1.5 lakh (2024).
- The new project aims to expand the vaccination, sterilisation, and feeding arrangements to control the rising stray dog population.
