Six-month-old infant dies in dog attack

Bhilwara (Rajasthan) – A six-month-old baby girl was injured in a dog attack at Hajias village. She died while undergoing treatment at the hospital. After the girl fell asleep in the cradle, her mother was feeding the buffalo. Suddenly a dog came and attacked the girl. The dog bit the girl’s jaw. The mother tried to shoo the dog away, but there was no success. On hearing the noise, people from the neighbourhood came and chased the dog. The girl was admitted to the hospital in critical condition, where the girl died within an hour after the surgery.

Editorial Perspective

It has become imperative to address the problem of stray dogs on a war footing. The Union and State Governments should look into this seriously. It is also equally important for citizens to put pressure on the government.
