Dear Friends/Animal Lovers

We are glad to share this News article that was published in the Tamil Newspaper Dinakaran in Pondicherry on 25/05/13. 

As such this may not seem like a great thing, but for Pondicherry, this article marks a milestone in Prevention of Animal Cruelty and Killings, since this highlights the 1st-ever case(FIR) filed against Stray dog cruelty/killings.

Usually, articles in Pondicherry almost always portray Animals/dogs in a negative manner.

Animal Welfare Federation of Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry(AWFTP), People's Animal Welfare Society(PAWS, Pondicherry), Scan Foundation and many other local Animal lovers/supporters joined hands to bring out the issue of Animal Welfare, especially highlighting the recent Brutal Attacking/Killing of Pet and Stray dogs on the night of April 1st, 2013 - through a Press Meet conducted yesterday.

The brief of the article(for non-tamil readers)
HEADLINE - Action to be taken on Dog-killers (Animal Welfare group insists)
