The evidence
Six questions, and where each is answered. Everything here is built from published sources or from records organisations have entered themselves, and every figure carries where it came from.
Where data is missingWhich districts has nobody counted?Absence shown as clearly as presence. A district with no data is not a district without need, and this is usually where a programme should be scoped.What areas needWhat does this place's own data say it needs?Sterilisation, vaccination, feeding, treatment, ranked by what the records for that area actually show.Cost a programmeWhat would fixing one area cost?Animals, coverage, and a costed plan built from real figures. Where the data is thin it says so rather than estimating over it.Published studiesWhat has been researched, and by whom?Government, academic and NGO work on street dogs and rabies in India, indexed and cited.What has been triedWhat do other people do, and does it work?Interventions on record, with what they cost and what changed afterwards.Verified outcomesWhat actually got done?Work an organisation reported as finished, recorded against the animal it was done to, with the proof attached.
