Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) needs to implement Animal Birth Control (ABC) program to check growth of dog population in the city. Animal Welfare Board of India (AWBI) has directed NMC and State Animal Husbandry department to carry on the Animal Birth Control program. NMC has failed to implement the program due to lack of infrastructure and manpower.
