A video of a dog being cruelly dragged about the city by the driver as it is attached to a car has gone viral.

The incident took place on a congested road in Jodhpur in broad daylight. Passengers in a separate vehicle that was pursuing the car took the video.
The footage depicts a guy driving a vehicle while a dog is attached to it by a leash. The dog was seen struggling to keep up with the pace of the car, swaying from side to side. A piece of fabric was also put around its lips. When a motorcycle rider observed the abuse, he approached the automobile in front of it and forced the driver to stop.
Rajneesh Galwa is the name of the doctor, according to a tweet from the non-profit organisation Dog Home Foundation. Local media sites cited him as stating that he was attempting to get rid of the stray dog that was living close to his house.
Taking to Twitter, the NGO stated: "The person who did this he is a Dr. Rajneesh Gwala and dog legs have multiple fracture and this incident is of Shastri Nagar Jodhpur please spread this video so that CP Jodhpur should take action against him and cancel his licence."
