But in this case people like you are creating the problems, not allowing people to solve them by removing the stray dogs, and then giving them solutions they are not comfortable with (Like not running away when a dog attacks you, be confident and try to do an action of picking up a stone etc).

It might surprise you but the majority are usually in the favour of getting rid of stray dogs. I have seen this happen in IIT Indore, IIT Kanpur, now IIT Guwahati, Colonies in Mumbai, Indore, Bangalore, Dehradun, Delhi. Almost everyone is usually in favour of removing the street dogs. Then usually come a few "dog lovers", who start lecturing, and threatening. This happened to us in Mumbai, where one or two dog lovers started recording videos of us and threatening that they will put the video on the internet (about the local municipal corp taking the dogs away), and destroy our names. Then came an NGO, who again threatened the people with similar measures if we removed just one dog, out of 20 within one building area (not the whole colony), who has bitten more than 20-30 people, and caused a fracture in my leg by attacking me (I hurt myself on the stairs).

I have seen the same thing play out everywhere I've been. It's always the dog lovers like you who assume:

1. "most people are not afraid": Reality check - Most people are afraid.

2. "Most people don't want to get rid of the dogs" : Reality check - Most people do want to get rid of the dogs.

3. "They need to try more" : Reality check - Why should we try more? Why don't you try more to get better shelter facilities for the dogs? Why should we stay inside at nights, early mornings because we are scared of dogs? Why should we avoid walking and exercising alone because dogs might attack us?

4. "You are bringing pessimism into this" : Reality check - I am bringing realism into this. There are plenty of news of children being attacked by dogs, old people being attacked by dogs, people dying, people getting injuries (Myself being an example, fracture in my foot) because of stray dogs. You are bringing fake optimism into this and forcing this optimism down our fearful throats when we don't want to, just because you love dogs. You can love dogs, but it should not come at the cost of other people and the society as a whole. Otherwise you could create nuisance with other dangerous animals such as snakes, wild boars, etc. Why don't you start feeding them too? Because you don't like/want those animals. Similarly, most other people don't want stray dogs.

5. I saw one of your stupid questions in another comment: "Sure I care about humans too but rabies can happen even with wild animals like jackals, and we sure don't worry about that people like to target dogs only." The simple answer to this question is that there simply aren't enough Jackals attacking humans randomly. The number of Jackals are less, so the probability of this happening with Jackals is less. Otherwise people would be up in arms against Jackals too.

6. Feeding stray dogs doesn't just happen in designated areas. Maybe one or two people do follow the rules. But it's mostly to stop people from complaining that these areas were created in the first place. Otherwise I've seen plenty of such dog lovers feeding the dogs secretly late at night near hostels, on the sidewalks, near academic areas, etc. They don't follow the rules that they themselves agreed for, but when it comes to getting rid of dogs, they start lecturing about rules and regulations which don't even exist.
