The resident had informed the snake helpline to rescue the poisonous snake. When the snake helpline member reached the house, he found the snake showing unnatural symptoms during its movement.

“I received a call from owner of the house at around 8.30 pm last night seeking assistance to rescue a snake that had entered his house. I found that a snake with distended abdomen (abnormally swollen outward) near a bicycle. When I tried to rescue it from that place, it moved and started vomiting the piece of PVC pipe that it had swallowed assuming it to be food,” said Sujit Mohanty, the snake helpline member.

The condition of the snake was stated to be normal after it vomited the plastic pipe. Later, the snake helpline member released the cobra into the wild.
