The stray dog menace has become a serious problem and proves dangerous for the lives of pedestrians and travellers alike. In Ponda, the menace has been noticed at almost every spot at this jurisdiction. At Tisk, stray dogs occupy the pavement and also the roadsides. The same can also be said of the KTC bus terminus. Recently, stray dogs were noticed at the parking area opposite Maruti temple at Warkhandem. Due to this, persons wishing to park their two-wheelers face great risk and danger. It is absolutely necessary for the Ponda Municipal Council (PMC) to initiate prompt positive steps to curb this growing menace so that public at large are assured safety on a permanent basis. Unless this matter is tackled on a war footing, it would be extremely difficult to bring the existing dangerous situation under control.
