It was caught on CCTV. The media got a hold of it and social media has video captures of the TV coverage. It wouldn't surprise me if the lady stopped feeding them after she encountered the aggressive dogs since they're going after the pants pockets where they think the food is stored.

Deputy director of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) Chakrapani Reddy told The Independent on Tuesday that they are taking the matter seriously.

He said the veterinarians from the department were immediately rushed to the spot as soon as authorities received the message but by then the boy had been taken to the hospital.

“We have picked up around 33 dogs from the area and so far we have sterilised 25. All the dogs will be released in the same areas after the post-operative care,” Mr Reddy said.

He added that the dogs that attacked the boy are under observation. A decision will be taken after the observation period ends as per Animal Protection Index guidelines.

The incident comes two weeks after another four-year-old boy died after being attacked by stray dogs in Gujarat’s Surat. The boy who belonged to a poor family of construction workers was attacked by four dogs during the morning hours on 8 February.

In January, more than 80 people were hospitalised in Bihar’s Arrah after a stray dog attacked multiple people, including 10 children. The dog was later beaten to death by the enraged locals.
