Mungeli: The villagers in the Mungeli district of Chhattisgarh carried a tribal woman on a cot to a hospital after she was bitten by a snake here. Citing heavy rainfalls, the district's additional collector said that the lady was taken on the cot as water had filled the nearby stream.
"It is quite difficult to reach the area and the health officials of the villages were cut off from there due to heavy rains," said Teerthraj Agarwal, Mungeli Additional Collector. "This was a very specific case and the water had filled the nullah so she had to be taken on a cot," Agarwal added.
