Telangana Police Investigate Mass Stray Dog Killings Linked to Election Promises

Telangana police are investigating the alleged mass killing of approximately 500 stray dogs across several villages in Kamareddy and Hanamkonda districts within a week. Reports indicate that elected representatives, including village sarpanches, may have orchestrated the killings to fulfill promises made during recent Gram Panchayat elections to address the stray dog menace. Cases have been registered against multiple individuals, and post-mortem examinations are being conducted to determine the cause of death and identify any substances used.
