Delhi civic body razes shelter of woman who fed stray dogs
The South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) on Monday demolished the makeshift shelter of a 65-year-old ragpicker, Pratima Devi, who housed and daily fed over 100 stray dogs. The civic officials said they had received complaints about Devi encroaching on public land and distributing drugs among minor ragpickers. However, several animal rights activists and NGOs rebuilt the shelter on Tuesday.
