Too late. Most Goans have already sold their land to “Delhi people”

One more thing on stray dogs: I am not a pet owner, but that doesn’t mean I want to murder dogs.
But, but: there is something very disturbing (purely my opinion) about a society that takes out candle-light march for dogs than for, say, men who die after being forced to lower
If you remove all visible dogs from an area without sterilising and vaccinating them, new unsterilised dogs migrate in (from neighbouring areas). Within months, numbers rise again.
