What did PM Modi say on Indian breed of dogs?

PM Modi said, “About five years ago, I had discussed Indian breed dogs in this program. I had urged the countrymen as well as our security forces to adopt Indian breed dogs, because they adapt more easily to our environment and conditions. BSF and CRPF have increased the number of Indian breed dogs in their squads. For training of dogs BSF’s National Training Center is in Tekanpur, Gwalior. Here, special focus is being given to Rampur Hound of Uttar Pradesh, Mudhol Hound of Karnataka and Maharashtra.

PM Modi further said, “Training manuals for Indian breed dogs have been rewritten to bring out their unique strengths. Indian dogs like Mongreles, Mudhol Hounds, Kombai and Pandicona are being trained at CRPF’s Dog Breeding and training school in Bengaluru. Last year in Lucknow, All India Police Duty Meet was organized. At that time, a dog named Riya had attracted people’s attention. This is a Mudhol Hound which has been trained by BSF. Riya won the first prize here by defeating many foreign breeds.”
