He used his scarf to secure the reptile and promptly informed the forest department. The snake was later handed over to the local forest range office without injury. In another case near Navkar College, Mitmita, a fawn being chased by stray dogs was rescued by alert residents Dnyaneshwar Aadhav and Abasaheb Shardut of Padgaon. The duo safely contained the animal and ensured its transfer to the forest authorities.
