Due to the increasing incidents of dog bites by stray dogs in Bhiwandi city, the Bhiwandi Nizampur City Municipal Corporation has established a sterilization centre near the STP Plant at the Slaughter House. This initiative, undertaken in collaboration with a Hyderabad-based NGO, aims to address the issue effectively.

The organisation plans to sterilize approximately 13,631 stray and injured dogs over the next five years, with the procedure costing Rs 1,490 per dog.
