On 22nd December, three minor children were injured in separate stray dog attacks reported from different locations under the Kotwali area of Haidergarh. The incidents triggered concern among local residents. All the injured children were rushed to the Community Health Centre in Haidergarh, where doctors treated their wounds and administered anti rabies vaccinations.

According to media reports, the first incident took place in Pura Madhav village. Six-year-old Anant Tiwari was playing outside his house when a stray dog suddenly attacked him, causing multiple bite injuries. Family members immediately intervened and shifted the child to the health centre for medical care.

In another incident from Sansara village, eleven-year-old Pari was injured after being attacked by stray dogs while playing outside her home. She sustained bite injuries and was taken to the Community Health Centre for treatment.

A third incident involved eight-year-old Janvi, who was attacked by dogs while playing near the entrance of her house. She too was admitted to the health facility along with the other two children.

The incidents have once again highlighted growing safety concerns related to the presence of stray dogs in residential areas, particularly for young children who play outdoors without supervision.
