Earlier, a woman sustained injuries after being attacked by a pack of 15 stray dogs while on a morning walk in Hyderabad.
The incident, which was recorded on CCTV, occurred on June 21.
The victim’s husband, Badri, complained that many tenants feed stray animals inside the premises of their rented accommodation.
Rajeshwari, the victim of a stray dog attack who was fortunate enough to have dodged 15 pounding canines, shared the incident and claimed that the local authorities have not been doing anything about the stray dog menace in the area, adding that the incident could have been deadly if it had involved children or the elderly.
