'Parvat Gala Baria was standing near a spot where maize was being loaded from a field onto a truck,' a village leader said, according to News 18.

'A snake slithered out and while others there ran away, he continued to stand claiming he had caught snakes earlier.

'He grabbed the snake which retaliated by biting him on the hands and face. However, Parvat bit back and killed the snake too.'
