“When the tigers walk into the forest, the animals indicate their appearance. Similarly, when a king cobra selits on the ground, the other snakes run away from their hole, and the King Cobra hunts them … Since the King Cobra has disappeared, a district like Dindori, where I was a minister-in-charge, has seen the death of 200 snakes.”
