India has always been a land of exotic snakes. Snake bites become a very important preventable public health hazards as a result of urbanization and cutting down of forests. However, it is believed that in India about 2 million people are bitten by snake and about 35000-50000 cases prove fatal. This amply reflects the magnitude of the problem. It is mainly due to unawareness about the snake and snake bite management. As a result of this there is delay in correct treatment and failure to perform necessary interventions.
