The odd part
The miracle of economic inflation where a stray dog becomes 40 times more expensive to catch the moment a politician enters the city.
What happened
The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation has introduced a fascinating tiered-pricing model for stray dog management. While capturing a regular 'aam-aadmi' dog costs the taxpayer a modest Rs 200, the rate magically surges to Rs 8,000 per shift during VVIP movements. It seems the municipal dogs are trained to respect the hierarchy, becoming significantly more 'nuisance-worthy' only when a motorcade is in sight.
