Delhi Police File FIR Over Stray Dog Misinformation
New Delhi, January 2, 2026 – Delhi Police have registered a First Information Report (FIR) following a complaint from the Directorate of Education (DoE) concerning the spread of alleged misinformation on social media regarding a circular about appointing nodal officers for stray dog-related matters in schools. Delhi Education Minister Ashish Sood stated that the government decided to take action against Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal for disseminating false information. The FIR, filed under Sections 353 (1) and 192 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), accuses unknown individuals of circulating false, misleading, and malicious information claiming teachers are being asked to count stray dogs instead of teaching. Sood alleges AAP leaders are deliberately misleading the public and that they would portray themselves as the victim as a result.
