‘Begin by creating shelters for 5,000 dogs': SC's Aug 11 full order now out
The Supreme Court has, in its August 11 order to capture and put in shelters all stray dogs in Delhi-NCR, called it 'a progressive exercise' — acknowledging that shelters could take time to be built and increased — and told the authorities to 'begin by creating dog shelter(s) for say 5,000 dogs in the next six-eight weeks'. Under no circumstances should the dogs be released back onto the streets, says SC's August 11 order.(PTI) The matter has since been referred to a larger bench of three judges for a hearing on August 14. Animals rights activists and several other sections questioned the August 11 order, arguing that it wasn't rooted in science even though the stray-dog issue needed to be addressed. Under no circumstances should the dogs be released back onto the streets after being 'captured, sterilized, dewormed and immunized as required by Animal Birth Control Rules, 2023', as per the detailed order uploaded on the SC website on Wednesday. Ordering immediate start of both exercises — that of rounding up the dogs, and the creation of infrastructure such as shelters and medical facilities — the order says these 'shall be undertaken simultaneously'. 'We do not want to hear about even a semblance of lethargy from the concerned authorities on the pre-text of awaiting the creation of shelters / pounds,' the order, however, adds. It warns authorities of strict action otherwise. 'The dog shelters/pounds should have sufficient personnel to sterilize, deworm and immunize stray dogs and also for looking after the stray dogs who would be detained,' it adds. The two-judge bench took suo motu notice of the stray dog issue — citing a rise in cases of dog bites — and passed orders covering "all localities of Delhi, Ghaziabad, Noida, Faridabad, Gurugram as well as areas on the outskirts".

Washington Sundar avows Stokes' handshake controversy fired up Indian team on England tour: ‘It brings out a lot'
Washington Sundar shared his views on the infamous handshake controversy between India and England, in which he was at the centre of the incident. It happened on the final day of the Manchester Test, and India were fighting hard to avoid a defeat after England claimed a massive first-innings lead. India mounted a strong second-innings resistance, with KL Rahul and Shubman Gill laying the foundation before Ravindra Jadeja and Sundar attacked the English bowlers on the final day. Washington Sundar scored a brilliant century at Old Trafford, Manchester.(PTI) In the last hour, with Jadeja and Sundar both closing in on centuries, England skipper Ben Stokes walked up to Jadeja and offered a handshake—England's customary way of signalling a draw and calling off play early, with about 15 overs still remaining. However, India declined the offer. Jadeja and Sundar, both on the verge of personal landmarks, were determined to see them through. The decision didn't sit well with Stokes and several England players, who showed visible signs of displeasure. Sundar weighed in on the incident, noting that such moments are quite common when two fiercely competitive sides face off on the field. "I mean, it just happens in any sport, doesn't it?" Washington told Wisden. "We've seen a lot of such things happen, not just in cricket, but in any sport. I mean, that's how sport is. It brings out a lot. I think it was just an experience for all of us, honestly." Sundar admitted that the tension kind of fired him up," he said. 'You want to be challenged': Sundar The Indian all-rounder further acknowledged that the episode added extra spark to the team's performance, explaining how such moments tend to heighten the intensity of a contest, particularly in the red-ball format. "One hundred per cent," he said. "You ask this to any player — that's exactly what you would hear. Especially in Test cricket, you want to be challenged because that's exactly what you expect every single day. And when the situation gets tough, the only thing that will help you get over it and come out successful is being really tough in your head," he added. Sundar talked about the demands of excelling in the longest format, stressing the importance of sustaining high standards over time. "Every player who's played this format and been successful would have done this extremely well and over a long period of time, quite consistently as well," he said.

Chennai Grandmasters Day 7: Vincent Keymer Closes In On Title As Anish Giri Holds Arjun Erigaisi
Last Updated: Keymer's win over Liang Awonder took him to the brink of glory in Chennai with just two rounds left to be played as Erigaisi was held to yet another draw by Dutchman Giri. Indian hope Arjun Erigaisi was held to yet another draw in the ongoing edition of the Chennai Grandmasters on Wednesday, as he had to be happy with splitting the points with Dutchman Anish Giri, who registered his seventh-straight tie at the Hyatt Regency. Masters leader Vincent Keymer inched closer to the title as his opponent on the day, American Liang Awonder, decided to resign as the German took his points tally to five and a half points with four wins and three draws, and remains unbeaten. Nihal Sarin got back to winning ways as he triumphed over American Ray Robson, while Karthikeyan Murali bested Vidit Gujrathi, while Jorden Van Foreest's winning run was brought to an end by Pranav V, who fought back valiantly to pick up half-a-point. Keymer leads the table and stands on the cusp of glory as a better result than Erigiaisi on the penultimate day would seal his supremacy at the Tamil Nadu Capital City. Abimanyu Puranik had to settle for a draw with Aryan Chopra in the challengers section, as did Adhiban B and Iniyan Pa, who also registered a draw in the fixture between the two Indian prospects. Pranesh M got the better of Vaishali R, who is still in search of a win at the event with just two games left to go. Leon Luke Mendoca posted a win over Diptayan Ghosh to add to his tally. Harika Dronvalli slumped to another defeat as Harshavardhan GB got the better of the seasoned campaigner.
