Bareilly: Man dies from snakebite one hour after killing Cobra in field; Locals call it ‘revenge’
Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh: In an incident reported from Bareilly in Uttar Pradesh, a young man died after being bitten by a snake just an hour after he killed a cobra while working in the fields. The case has sparked intrigue and widespread discussion in Kyaara village, with locals believing it to be a case of "snake revenge."
The deceased, Govind Kashyap (32), was working as a laborer on Wednesday, gathering straw on the farm of a local resident, Atul Singh. While working, he encountered a cobra that had coiled up and started hissing. Reacting to this, Govind struck and killed the snake with his stick, crushing its hood before returning home for meal.
When Govind resumed work about an hour later, he was bitten by another snake at the same spot in the field. Witnesses reported seeing Govind trying to run toward his house, but he collapsed and died after only a few steps.
Farm owner Atul Singh found Govind in distress and notified his family, who immediately rushed him to the hospital. However, doctors declared him dead on arrival, stating that he had been bitten by a highly venomous snake, which caused the poison to rapidly spread through his body.
Villagers, shaken by the incident, shared that the second snake had reportedly lingered near the dead cobra for some time before the attack, fueling superstitious beliefs that the snake had sought revenge. Social media platforms have amplified the story, and it has quickly gone viral, with people sharing varied interpretations.
