SUB: SHOCKING BUTCHERY AT THE JAL BOARD BUILDING AT LAJPAT NAGAR
Dear Sir,
In my capacity as Chairperson of the Animal Welfare Board of India, a statutory body set up under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, I am writing to you to invite your attention to a shocking instance of butchery, and utterly brutal killings of stray dogs at the Jal Board office, Jal Sadan, Lajpat Nagar, on Sunday, the 2ndof May, a little after 2.00 p.m., that has come to light a little while ago. As information filters out, several agitated residents of Delhi are calling me up and demanding that the perpetrators of the criminal acts be brought to book.
Apparently, on Sunday, the 2nd of May, 2010, between 2 and 3 p.m., when 4 (four) guards, including one Ram Kher, were ostensibly guarding the complex, and 12 (twelve) Delhi Jal Board staff, including one Rakesh, and one Ashok, were on emergency water supply duty, and therefore present at the complex, and some canteen staff were also present, 5 to 6 miscreants easily breached the security and entered the complex ! We have learnt that they were probably from the adjoining Vinoba Puri area. Despite the sensitive nature of the installation – a Delhi Jal Board installation – they were allowed to enter. Thereafter, in connivance with the 4 guards on duty, and either some or all of the staff on emergency duty, the miscreants, and the guards, and some of the others brutally beat up and cut / chopped 11 community dogs (i.e. stray dogs resident at the complex), to a horribly painful death. Apparently, legs were broken, cuts were inflicted, and bodies pierced with bhalas and other sharp objects, before the poor, hapless animals died. Some dogs, in a desperate bid to escape, ran into the building. However, the guards, and some or all of the 12 staff of duty kicked and beat them out. They were then killed in the gruesome and horribly sub-human manner described above.
The Board has also learnt that thereafter, the flesh and some parts of the body of the poor animals that suffered and died were eaten/kept aside for eating later. Some animal remains were thrown into an adjoining area, and other remains and blood were strewn over the place at that time. What is shocking is that none of the persons present called up the police, or even the Number 100, clearly demonstrating that they were all participating in the act. It was only yesterday, and today, that the other employees learnt what had occurred, and informed some Animal Welfare Organizations and the Animal Welfare Board of India.
The Board would have you know that animal cruelty is an offence – under Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, and Sections 428 and 429 of the Indian Penal Code – punishable with imprisonment and fine. The Animal Welfare Board of India shall of course be lodging a criminal complaint and taking legal recourse ; but I urge you as well to investigate, and take strong action against the employees who connived with the miscreants and perpetrated the heinous crime described above.
Please bear in mind that apart from the shameful slaughter of community dogs that the guards, and some/all of the employees present at the complex on Sunday, the 2nd of May, 2010, resorted to, a sensitive Jal Board installation was breached with impunity! The miscreants could have as easily mixed hazardous substances with water, leading to human casualties / illness.
What has occurred is serious enough to merit your intervention and strong action. Kindly do the needful, and please keep me informed.
Yours Sincerely
(Dr. R.M. Kharb)
Maj.Gen.(Retd.), AVSM
Chairman, AWBI

Shame some have to blame India for the actions of a few of it’s citizens. Many other countries do this sort of atrocity for sport culture and many other excuses. For example the Spanish cut and stab bulls for fun, the Americans abuse cows in Rodeo abuses wild horses by government dictate, the Canadians club baby seals to death, the Chinese boil cats alive, Denmark has animal brothels for perverts to use, Koreans eat dogs many countries support fur farming vivisection and other atrocities against animals, the new UK Prime Minister fought his election campaign on repealing the anti hunting with dogs law that prevents foxes etc being torn apart by dogs for fun! So please when you criticise another countries animal welfare think what your own country may be doing or not! It is unfortunate that this cruelty in India apparently happened on official government property where the animals should have had sanctuary but blaming the Indian people is unfare when like most nations most people will not be doing these sort of cruel acts! Thus your remarks should be aimed at the perpetrators of this crime!
