The ban on feeding 94 dogs living on the 280-acre Kalina campus of Mumbai University, imposed on August 25, has been lifted following intervention by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). The move by the BMC comes after the Maharashtra Navnirman Vidyarthi Sena (MNVS) issued a 24-hour warning to the university administration.
The issue came to light after the dogs on the university premises were allegedly deprived of food for several days. The university administration's decision had raised concerns over the welfare and safety of the animals.
