Rajganj: A python got trapped in a fishing net in Piplatala Colony of Jaladumur Para under Binnagudhi Gram Panchayat of Rajganj block, causing a stir. The nearly 7-feet long python was later rescued safely.
According to sources, a local resident had cast his net in the Sahu river as usual on Sunday. On Monday morning, he found a large python trapped instead of a fish. The forest department was immediately informed, following which Dabgram range officials reached the spot and rescued the snake.
Forest officials have confirmed that the python is completely healthy and will be released back into the forest.
