Lucky Couldn't be Saved!
During the end of July, netizens online were shocked to come across the horrific condition of Lucky, that was brought to light by Sonam Kapoor. Under resident Mr Bhatia’s instruction, the dog was mercilessly beaten by the watchman of society. As the video gained national attention, the Bombay Animal Rights on July 27, lodged an FIR with the Worli Police against the culprits. PETA and animal rights activists signed an online petition, and crowdfund was also initiated for Lucky’s treatment.
The vets could not save Lucky. The pooch’s tragic incident highlights the horrific condition that stray dogs in India face each day. It is an increasing concern that needs close attention and humans must be accountable to be responsible. We hope Lucky’s soul rest in peace and that it is the last incident of its kind.
