Locals across Jaipur show a cold shoulder towards the registration of pets.
Two hundred eighty dogs were registered during a two-day camp organised by Jaipur Municipal Corporation Greater.
The camp witnessed registration of fewer than 100 canines on Sunday which was the last day.
The actual number of dogs will be more than 50,000 in the city.
Jaipur Municipal Corporation, Greater along with the NGO Protection of Animal and Welfare Society (PAWS) has taken up this initiative to motivate people to get their dogs registered on the occasion of Valentine’s day.
The idea behind this is to care for your pets as you do for your lover.
Registration of dogs is essential and a rule in the municipal corporation which most of the residents are unaware of.
A senior JMC, Greater official said that lack of awareness among residents is the reason that people do not come forward for dog registration.
“We organised this camp along with PAWS to provide easy access to people who can get on spot registration.
But the turnout was slow as compared to the number of dogs that must be present in the city.
