Kangan:-In a remarkable display of bravery, a local resident from the Bonibagh area of Kangan in central Kashmir’s Ganderbal district successfully rescued a venomous snake from a household kitchen, thereby averting potential danger.
The unexpected appearance of the snake sparked immediate panic among the household members, according to local sources. Witnesses informed Rising Kashmir that the sighting left the family in distress, prompting a swift response from a local hero.
Jaffer Majeed, a resident of the area, rushed to the scene after hearing the frightened screams emanating from the household. “I heard screaming in the neighborhood after they spotted the snake in their kitchen. I quickly went there and managed to capture it,” Jaffer recounted.
His prompt action brought immense relief to the household and the surrounding community, as he safely removed the snake from the premises without harm.
This incident is not an isolated one for Jaffer, who has repeatedly demonstrated his commitment to wildlife protection. In 2018, he rescued a female fawn of the endangered Hangul deer and has since aided various birds and reptiles over the years. His dedication has made him a well-known figure in the region, admired for his unwavering commitment to safeguarding both the community and local wildlife.
