Chhattisgarh: Farmer ties snake to pole for biting him

Bhopal: Have you ever heard of a snake being imprisoned for biting a person? Believe it or not, a farmer in a Chhattisgarh village exactly did this to “punish” a king cobra for biting him.

The bizarre incident took place in the village of Lahangbahara under Kathgara police station in Chhattisgarh’s Korba district on Sunday.

Lahari Lal, a farmer in the village, was bitten by the poisonous snake when he was tilling his land. He got furious with the serpent and then started chasing the slithering snake to capture it. Later, he succeeded to overpower it. Lahari later took the snake to his house and tied it to the pole in his backyard.
