Rohit Sharma’s wife Ritika Sajdesh posts emotional Instagram story for stray dogs

The former Indian captain of the T20Is and Tests, Rohit Sharma’s wife Ritika Sajdesh, has shared an emotional story on Instagram regarding the decision from the Supreme Court on the stray dogs. They were ordered to remove all the dogs from the roads of the Delhi-NCR. The civic bodies of Gurugram, Noida, and Ghaziabad have already begun to remove them from localities and houses.

Rohit Sharma's wife has raised her voice on the matter and reckoned that the animal is a heartbeat, and not a menace, as they call them. The mayor of Delhi, Iqbal Singh, however, backed the Supreme Court order, highlighting that the people of Delhi had been facing problems almost regularly.

“They call it a menace. We call it a heartbeat. Today, the Supreme Court says- take every stray dog off the streets of Delhi-NCR and lock them away. No sunlight. No freedom. No familiar faces greet every morning. But these are not just ‘stray dogs.’ They are the ones who wait outside your tea stall for a biscuit. They are the silent night guards for shopkeepers.” Rohit Sharma’s wife wrote on Instagram story.

Rohit Sharma, who has already retired from the T20Is and Tests just before the start of the recently concluded five-match Test series against England, is reportedly on the verge of calling it a day from the 50-over format for the Blue Brigade. His wife, however, has addressed a serious issue on the matter.

“They are the tails wagging when the children return from school. They are the warmth in a cold, uncaring city. Yes, there are problems- bites, safety concerns- but caging an entire community of animals is not a solution, it’s an erasure. The real fix? Large-scale sterilization programs, regular vaccination drives, community feeding zones, and adoption campaigns.” Sajdesh wrote.

“Not punishment. Not imprisonment. A society that can’t protect its voiceless is a society losing its soul. Today it’s the dogs. Tomorrow, who will it be? Raise your voice. Because they don’t have one.” Rohit Sharma’s wife shared on her Instagram story.
