Transforming Ahmedabad into a model clean city, the corporation deploys feeding zones and AI to handle strays humanely and hygienically.
Policies designate spots for dogs and cows, with fines for feeders straying from them—stopping garbage spread. Compliant with 2023 animal rules and Supreme Court orders, Naresh Rajput of CNC Department says it restores order to public spaces.
Traffic hazards from loose cows are history, thanks to RFID tagging 110,000 animals and CCTV at 130 spots. Deep learning decodes footage to ID owners, reuniting families fast and clearing roads.
Dogs’ 126 feeding sites pair with shelters for sterilization and shots, slashing rabies threats. Ekta, a local, welcomes the change: ‘Centralized feeding means no more trash piles—cleaner streets for all.’
These steps supercharge the clean city ethos, weaving animal kindness into strict civic norms. Ahmedabad leads with a scalable solution for India’s urban stray challenges.
