Meanwhile, another woman standing nearby rushed to save the child. She immediately took the baby in her arms and left the spot. The baby was then rushed to a hospital. However, she could not survive and succumbed to the injuries.
As per the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation rules, it is mandatory to register pet dogs, reported Aaj Tak. However, it is still not clear whether the owner of the dog made the registration. It is a matter of investigation.
Rishika's family lodged a police complaint against the dog owner. As per the residents of the society, in the past also the dog bit two people. A complaint was lodged in connection with the matter, but no action was taken.
