Bengaluru, July 26: The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) recently introduced updated guidelines for Bengaluru communities that feed pets. The civic body also emphasised that Residential Welfare Associations (RWAs) are not permitted to ban community animals, pets, street dogs, or cats in residential layouts, common areas, or lifts. Additionally, using sticks to chase away dogs would be considered illegal.
Further, RWAs will be closely monitored regarding their treatment of pets. Their bylaws are required to ensure that they do not negatively impact the presence of animals within the housing society. Pets must be permitted in common areas, and the use of a leash muzzle on lifts is not mandatory.
