Class 1 Student Bitten by Snake at Kolkata School, Receives Treatment
A Class 1 student, Drupto Pal, was bitten by a snake inside Mitra Institution in South Kolkata during a tiffin break on Monday morning. He was promptly taken to SSKM hospital, where he received anti-venom treatment and is now stable. The school informed the Forest Department, which conducted a search but found no snake. This follows a similar incident involving a Class 3 student bitten at another Kolkata school earlier this month. The school has taken precautionary measures and plans further inspections.
