Fight the cruel dog meat trade in India!

The gruesome dog meat trade is prevalent throughout the Indian state of Nagaland. Dogs are tied up in sacks with their muzzles bound shut from the moment they are captured until they are slaughtered, often forced to await death alongside the butchered remains of their companions.

Customers select the live dog they wish to purchase, which are then clubbed to death in the market. Before being butchered, the carcass is roasted over an open fire or thrown into scalding hot water to make it easier to remove their fur. 

The Food Safety & Standards Regulation of 2011 does not permit dog meat consumption in India. Even with this legislative ban, it is not enforced.

Please urge the Nagaland government to implement the existing ban and make sure the industry is shut down for good.
Hon'ble Chief Minister,

Subject: Please enforce the ban on dog meat in Nagaland.

I am appalled by the illegal dog meat trade in Nagaland. HSI/India revealed that the practice is riddled with insurmountable cruelty towards animals that go against existing laws. Please implement the FSS (Food Product Standards & Food Additives) Regulations of 2011 as soon as possible. You have the power to end this illegal activity in your State and make sure that the laws in places are upheld and respected. This could save the more than 30,000 dogs bound to suffer and be killed as part of this cruel industry. The law explicitly states that this practice is illegal so there’s no excuse for any further delay.

Please make the humane decision to make sure the cruel dog meat trade ban in Nagaland is enforced.

Sincerely,
