A 10-foot python was spotted crossing the National Highway near Nayagaon Toll Plaza in Rajasthan’s Kota around 1 am. Showing alertness, toll staff stopped speeding vehicles to ensure the reptile’s safety. After crossing, the python hid under the toll plaza’s weighing machine, prompting the staff to call experienced snake catcher Govind Sharma, who safely rescued it after a 30-minute operation, allowing traffic to resume smoothly.
