Man dies from snake bite; family immerses his body in Ganga expecting miracle

Bulandshahr : Mohit Kumar, 20, returns home after voting in the second round of the Lok Sabha election in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, on April 26. He went to the park in the evening and was bitten by a snake. His relatives took him to the doctor, but he died while receiving treatment. His relatives believed in superstition and immersed his body in the Ganga River to eliminate the poison.
He lived in Jairampur Kudena village, which is in the Anupshahar police station area of Bulandshahr. “Locals in the area had tied a tight knot around the cut to prevent blood flow. On the route to the hospital, the victim stopped speaking.

We took him to Rana Hospital in the city, but the physicians refused to admit him and suggested we transfer him to the government hospital. Doctors at the government hospital pronounced him dead,” according to a relative. We took him to many seers who cure snake bites, but they all proclaimed him dead.

There is a notion that poison may be cleansed by immersing the body in the Ganga river, and we followed suit, he continued. A throng gathered on the Ganga River’s banks for hours to view a body tied to a railing, praying for a miracle, according to footage. When his relatives saw there was no movement in his corpse, they burned him on the Ganga’s ghat (bank).
