"We received a call about a snake in a well," Vaibhav Bhogale, a volunteer with Eco Echo Foundation, told news agency ANI in Hindi. "We don't know how long the snake was in the abandoned well.
"When we reached the location, we saw the snake was exhausted and had no energy. The well was full of water and it had no platform to rest on," Mr Bhogale told ANI. He said it was difficult for him and his team to go down the well to rescue the cobra, so they decided to use a rope to pull it up.
