A pack of stray dogs mauled a six-year-old girl to death in Kakumanu village in the district, police said today.
The incident took place during an annual festival in the village, they said, adding, the girl succumbed to her injuries following the attack.
Tension prevailed in the area for some time as angry villagers staged a dharna blaming local administration's "failure" to check the dog menace.
