Bilaspur municipal corporation launches sterilisation drive amid resistance

In Bilaspur’s Debrikhurd ward, a stray dog bit 12 people, including eight children, leading to a vaccination and sterilisation drive by the Bilaspur Municipal Corporation. Despite local opposition, the BMC captured and euthanised the rabid dog. This incident underscores rising dog bite cases in Chhattisgarh, with over 119,000 reported last year.
