In Pune and Pimpri Chinchwad, stray dogs pose a constant threat to residents.
Between January and November of 2024, 23,374 city residents were assaulted by dogs. In response to these alarming numbers, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) decided to increase awareness and offer financial and medical assistance to victims of dog attacks. However, there have been no updates on the implementation of these measures. Recently, the number of stray dogs in Pune has increased, with some of them attacking people during the day, further raising concerns about public safety.
