Sir,
Gokulam 2nd Stage, 13th Cross, near Mathrumandali Sishu Vikasa Kendra, adjacent roads and open areas have become a stray dog menace.
Packs of dozens of stray dogs suddenly descend during nights and mornings, daily howling without break.
The night barking is highly ferocious, and we, particularly senior citizens, are never allowed to sleep and get exhausted and are also highly stressed, affecting our health.
Morning walkers fear moving on the roads.
Now that the Supreme Court has given guidelines for ending the stray dog menace, MCC should catch all stray dogs and do the needful to protect senior citizens and in the interest of public health.
