Bengaluru Hospital Reports Rabies Death in Child Bitten by Stray Dog

A young girl, Khadeera Banu, lost her life to rabies at a hospital in Bengaluru, following a stray dog attack in Davangere, Karnataka. The incident occurred in April, resulting in substantial injuries. The girl was initially treated at a local hospital before being moved to Rajiv Gandhi Hospital in Bengaluru to provide advanced medical attention. The tragedy underscores the need for effective measures to control the stray dog population and prevent rabies, a potentially fatal disease. This event also brought attention to the recent Supreme Court order regarding the relocation of stray dogs from residential areas.
