A snake was recently spotted inside a coach of the Jabalpur-Mumbai Garibrath Express, and a video of the incident has gone viral.
The event occurred on Sunday morning, showing the snake hanging from the iron grip of a side upper berth in a crowded train. Although the berth was filled with luggage, no passengers were seated there, and the video captures travelers animatedly discussing how to handle the situation.
In the clip, the long snake dangles from the side berth, while some passengers suggest leaving it alone. One male passenger humorously remarked, “Gareeb nahi, ameer kaise aa gaya yeh? (Not poor, how did this rich person enter?),” referencing the train’s name in a playful manner.
