In Rajasthan's Tonk district, a girl who used to create humorous Instagram reels was bitten by a cobra, leading to her untimely death. The incident has left her family in extreme grief, and her followers in sorrow. Deepa, who lived in Ghaad town, recently made a reel on July 14 and shared it on Instagram.
Deepa, the second of four siblings, regularly made and posted reels on social media. She went out to cut fodder for the cows near her house at 6 in the morning. It was then that a cobra bit her on the leg. Deepa screamed, drawing nearby people who then killed the snake.
Seeing the effects of the cobra's venom, her family immediately took her to Kota in a private vehicle. Unfortunately, the venom spread so quickly that she passed away before reaching Kota.

Deepa's body was sent for post-mortem in Kota. After the post-mortem, her body will be brought to Ghaad, where her last rites will be performed.
People believe that if Deepa had been taken to Dooni CHC or Deoli Trauma Hospital within an hour of being bitten, her life could have been saved.
