To, The Delhi Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, New Delhi.

Subject: RTI petition - Support Public Registries for Animal Abusers. Greetings, Our Country has good reasons to be concerned about the whereabouts of animal abusers, including the high rate of recidivism among animal hoarders, the various dangers to a community that are associated with animal fighting, and the well-established link between violence towards animals and violence towards humans. Mandatory registration for convicted animal abusers in our Country would aid dramatically in keeping offenders away from potential new victims by alerting law enforcement and the public to their whereabouts, and by allowing animal shelters to thoroughly screen potential adopters for criminal offenders. The United Nations affiliated non-profit the International Organization for Animal Protection OIPA in India www.oipa.org along with the People for Animals (PFA) Haryana www.pfaharyana.in have drafted a comprehensive model system that would establish an animal abuser registry in our Country. To help reduce animal abuse and other forms of violence in our communities, we believe it is imperative that we pass this law. As your jurisdictions, we urge you to review the enforcement procedure of law related to animals read with the article 51 A (g) of the Indian Constitution, if you have questions or would like assistance and commit your support for an animal abuser registry system in our Country. Please take the lead in protecting our citizenry--and our fourlegged loved ones--from avoidable repeat offenses by convicted abusers. The Animal Welfare Board of India is a statutory advisory body on Animal Welfare Laws and promotes animal welfare in the country. Which was established in 1962 under Section 4 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 (No. 59 of 1960). The Animal Welfare Board of India is going to celebrate its golden jubilee in Delhi. On this occasion OIPA in India have decided to publish SOUVENIR, which will be circulated all over the World.
