A man died after being bitten by a snake at Jhalari Pipaladi Municipality-5 in the district on Tuesday.

Local resident Gobinda Saud, 30, died in the course of treatment at Kohalpur-based Hospital where he was referred from a local health post, police said.

A short supply of anti-snake venom serum in the Upachar Kendra at Arjuni in the locality where he was admitted two days ago after being bitten by a snake is blamed for the death of Saud, local resident CB Luhar. RSS
