Upon arrival, the team successfully captured the python and subsequently released it into a nearby jungle. DFO Kumar said, "We received information that a python was spotted in a village named Uncha. We rescued and released it in the jungle. It is difficult to say how it reached the village because the region is a habitat for pythons. It has been living in areas near Hindon and Yamuna."
