We live in a gated community, and our neighbours’ dog is constantly running loose, causing a lot of disturbance throughout the night. This lack of control is making it difficult for us to get any sleep. Is there any law or regulation that protects residents from this kind of nuisance?

Yes, under the Indian Penal Code (IPC), causing nuisance is an offense. Additionally, the Municipal Corporation Bylaws may have specific regulations regarding pet ownership and control, including leashing and noise restrictions. You can file a complaint with the local authorities to address this issue.
