Savita and Shobha Jagtap, who survived the snakebite

A family living in a makeshift chawl in Ambedkar Nagar, Malad East, has had a nightmarish two weeks, thanks to a snake that has been moving around their hut. While two members of the family survived a near fatal snakebite due to timely medication, a hen from their poultry died last week. A snake rescuer, who was recently called to scan the home, has also met with zero success.
