Chandigarh inspectors enforce ₹13,000 fines
Sanitary inspectors will be out making sure everyone follows the rules, with fines up to ₹13,000 for breaking them.
Each sector has a few feeding spots, all placed away from busy areas and parks.
Early signs look positive: severe dog-bite cases dropped from 1,764 in March to 1,288 in April.
A dog lover and a ward councilor are backing the move as a practical way to help both people and strays get along better.
