A tragic incident in Anjuna, Goa, resulted in the death of seven-year-old Prabhas Kalangutkar after being attacked by an unleashed pit bull while accompanying his mother to work. The boy was rushed to Goa Medical College and Hospital but succumbed to his injuries shortly after. An FIR has been filed against the dog's owner, Abdul Kader Khwaja, for negligence, and prior reports indicate that the same dog had previously attacked another child. Animal Husbandry Minister Nilkant Halarnkar announced intentions to discuss with Chief Minister Pramod Sawant the possibility of banning certain aggressive dog breeds and establishing stricter management guidelines. This incident has reignited discussions about dog attacks in Goa, where the number of pet dogs has significantly increased in recent years, prompting concerns over public safety. The government is considering further measures to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
