Massive python swims through flooded Navi Mumbai streets, viral video sparks alarm. And memes
A startling sight of a large, venomous python gliding through flooded streets in Navi Mumbai, after heavy rains, has gone viral. In the video, the enormous reptile is seen swimming calmly through stagnant rainwater, its head rising above the surface in an eerie display. The road, submerged in water, makes the sudden appearance of the green python all the more shocking. The video was shared on Instagram by user @sarpmitr_ashtvinayak_more with the caption, 'Rock Python..' and has since garnered over 6.7 million views and more than 268,000 likes. A post shared by सर्पमित्र_अष्टविनायक_मोरे (@sarpmitr_ashtvinayak_more) Sparking a wave of reactions from concerned and amused viewers, one user said, 'Mujhe python aata h ..baat karke dekhu kya??' (I know Python. Should I try to talk to it?) 'Are people asking the snake to speak Marathi as well? Or have they spared an animal?' said another user. 'Poor thing looks traumatized,' a third commented. 'Please call the forest department or something. The snake is probably stressed. It might also get hurt by a vehicle as it is hardly visible,' urged another viewer. 'They are all around us, 99% times unnoticed. If they have adapted to living with us, we should keep the natural areas natural and not just keep on building unnecessarily,' a fifth user said. This isn't the first instance of a python sighting in Mumbai during the monsoons. Last year, a video surfaced on social media showing a six-foot-long Indian rock python crossing a road near the Aarey Colony forest. Snakes are commonly seen after rain due to several environmental and biological reasons. When heavy rainfall floods their underground homes, such as burrows or crevices, they are forced to move to higher or drier areas, often bringing them into human spaces. This displacement is one of the most frequent reasons for snake sightings on roads or in gardens after a storm. The post-rain atmosphere is also ideal for snakes. As cold-blooded animals, snakes rely on external temperatures to regulate their body heat. The moist, cooler environment after rain helps them move more comfortably and stay hydrated.

Ajit Pawar visits Baramati after record rain, Supriya Sule says tracking situation from Doha
After Baramati received record rainfall of 314 mm in the last five days, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has pressed into service the government machinery in his hometown and local MP Supriya Sule has said she is taking stock of the situation from abroad. The heavy rain led to the overflowing of nullahs, leading to flooding. The excess flow of water also led to the Neera canal getting punctured at three places, flooding farms and other localities. 'Baramati on Sunday received heavy rainfall which is a record of 100 years. There is damage to some residential properties, so a structural audit will have to be done. The India Meteorological Department has predicted heavy rainfall for Tuesday as well and issued a red alert. I appeal to residents to ensure their safety as nature is not in our hands. Don't be scared, but reach out to government officials,' Pawar said as he visited an affected area in Baramati on Monday. In a social media post, Supriya Sule said Baramati, Indapur and Daund in her Lok Sabha constituency had been receiving record rainfall in the last few days. 'This has led to waterlogging in many places and people are suffering due to it. In many places, water has entered the houses of citizens. In this regard, I have personally contacted the Pune district collector over the phone from Doha, Qatar… I am constantly taking stock of the situation in the Baramati Lok Sabha constituency…,' she wrote from Doha, where she is leading a delegation of MPs of various parties deputed to convey India's position on the recent conflict with Pakistan that followed the Pahalgam terrorist attack. 'I have requested the district administration to provide health facilities to affected people… I also appeal to citizens to follow the instructions of the administration,' the NCP (SP) MP further wrote in Marathi. Minister and Indapur MLA Dattatray Bharne said, 'Indapur has suffered the most due to the rain. It was raining continuously for three days, due to which all waterbodies are overflowing. The canal burst has hit residential areas and farms. Domestic animals have died. A big loss to property. All government officers will reach out to all the affected residents and provide compensation,' he said during a visit to the affected area.
