India, Feb. 14 -- The Noida authority on Friday said that it had issued a second tender for setting up dog feeding zones to regulate street feeding and reduce resident-animal conflicts. The action comes following the Supreme Court's August 22 order, which directed municipal bodies to identify designated areas in every ward for street feeding of stray dogs. SP Singh, general manager of the Noida authority, said, "The authority began a phased rollout of infrastructure to demarcate feeding zones in sector 130, 135 and 137, among other areas. Dog feeding point boards are being installed at multiple locations across Phase-1 sectors under the public health department. The work, estimated to cost about Rs.1.18 crore, is likely to be completed within 180 days of commencement." Singh said this is the second tender under the broader citywide project. Officials said the authority's role is to create the necessary infrastructure while the long-term maintenance of the feeding points will be handed over to community bodies such as AOAs and RWAs....
