On Wednesday, a three-year-old boy was attacked by five stray dogs in Uttar Pradesh's Mathura. The dogs attacked him viciously before dragging him into a construction site. However, the boy was rescued by locals. Following the incident, Sarvagya Ram Mishra, District Magistrate of Mathura, said action will be taken immediately and the issue will be resolved within two days.
