Live Snake Found In Water Bottle Prompts Mass Recall
Indian government officials have ordered that all bottles of water in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh should be recalled and checked after an official found a live snake in one during a ceremony. The government event was taking place at the headquarters of the Bharatiya Janata Party, the ruling political party in India, when a doctor noticed that a live baby snake was swimming inside the water bottle.
Security forces, who were guarding the building at the time, took the bottle away to investigate further. Important ministers were present when the snake was discovered, including the federal Health Minister, who ordered that all bottles at the event should be withdrawn and that checks need to be carried out across the state.
However, the owner of the company that sells the mineral water is skeptical of the turn of events and believes there is a conspiracy against him. According to him, the snake had been placed in the bottle after it had been opened. “It’s a conspiracy against me. When I was shown the bottle, its seal was broken,” he said.
