Reptilian Intruder: Snake Found in Jhansi Medical College OT

A snake was discovered in the operation theatre of Maharani Laxmibai Medical College, Jhansi. Prompt action led to its removal by the forest department. Past incidents, including two major fires, have prompted the administration to tighten security and vigilance, especially during the monsoon season when such risks heighten.

A surprising incident unfolded at the Maharani Laxmibai Medical College in Jhansi as officials reported a snake sighting inside the operation theatre on Wednesday.

The OT in-charge, Kanak Srivastava, spotted the reptilian intruder and notified the forest department, who quickly intervened to rescue and release it back into the wild. This incident follows earlier emergencies in the theatre, including a tragic fire last November that claimed 18 young lives, and another recent fire scare in August.

Dr. Sachin Mahour, Chief Medical Superintendent, emphasized that the monsoon season escalates the risk of such intrusions, leading to stepped-up security measures and staff vigilance to avert future occurrences.
