The Madras High Court has stayed the operation of a letter written by a Joint Secretary in the Union Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying on March 12 asking the Chief Secretaries of all States and Union Territories to ban the sale and breeding of certain dogs classified as “ferocious and dangerous for human life” besides insisting upon sterilization of those dogs already being used as pets.
Justice Anita Sumanth also stayed a consequential instruction issued by Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) on March 14 asking its officials to prevent the import of those dogs.

Sudarshan, challenging the Joint Secretary’s letter as well as CBIC’s instruction.
