A 24-year-old man of Uttar Pradesh's Fatehpur was allegedly bitten by a snake for the eighth time in 50 days.
Vikas Dubey came into the limelight when media reported about his extraordinary series of snake encounters.
Vikas claimed that he was bitten by snake for the eighth time on Monday evening in Rajasthan's Dausa. Although his health did not deteriorate this time. But like before, this time too there are cut marks on his legs.
He is in Mehandipur Balaji Temple for the last few days.
The family members have reached Rajasthan after getting the news of snake bite.
After being bitten for the seventh time, Vikash had claimed that the snake had told him in his dream that he would die after being bitten for the ninth time.
In such a situation, Vikas and his family are scared. They are afraid that Vikas might get bitten by a snake for the ninth time.
On repeated snake bites and getting treatment in the same hospital, the health department decided to investigate the case and formed a committee. The committee claims that he was bitten by snake only once. After that, he has developed a snake phobia.
