Menace of unchained dogs

Md. Asimuzzaman (Joy), Thai Plastic Goli, Ulon, West Rampura, Dhaka
The rate of dog-bite related injuries has increased alarmingly in and around West Rampura, Ulon, Wapda Road and the adjoining areas. Inhabitants of this locality are frightened of unchained dogs on the streets as they often bark at the students, passers-by and children. The number of stray dogs have increased at such a high rate that the people are feeling very unsafe. Recently, some people including students and children were bitten by these dogs. We urge the authorities concerned to take effective measures in order to reduce the danger of dog bite and ensure security of the people in the locality.
