Stray dog menace continues in Warangal

The timely intervention of passersby saved the boys. They chased the dog and killed it. The children were rushed to the MGM hospital for treatment.

"Despite repeated appeals, the Greater Warangal Municipal Corporation (GWMC) has turned a blind eye to the stray dog menace. As a result, it has become a tough task for the children to walk through the streets," Ch Maheshwar, a localalleged.

He said that the locals have urged the sanitary inspector concerned to take note of the canine menace. But he did not respond, answering rudely, the locals alleged.
