Jaipur: In a tragic incident, a two-year-old girl died following a dog attack in Jhalawar, Rajasthan, on Friday morning. This marks the third incident of children's death due to stray dogs' attacks in the state within the last 15 days.
The incident in Jhalawar occurred on Friday early morning when the young girl was sleeping outside a makeshift tent alongside her father, and 3-4 dogs dragged her away to approximately 50 meters distance.
Upon hearing a commotion, the father woke up only to find that his daughter was missing. He rushed to the scene, but by the time he arrived, the dogs had already mauled the child severely.
The father somehow rescued his daughter and immediately rushed her to the hospital, where doctors declared her brought dead.
The police said that the family of the deceased had moved to Jhalawar from Baran about a month ago searching for work and was living in a roadside tent.
