Aligarh. In Aligarh, a 14-year-old daughter saved her mother by fighting a crocodile. On Friday, the woman was cutting grass on the banks of the Kali river. That’s why the crocodile came out of the river and filled the woman’s hand in the jaw. Hearing the cry of the mother, the daughter ran with the sickle and attacked the crocodile’s eye.

Both had gone to the river bank to collect grass
Satyavati, the 45-year-old wife of Shobharam, a resident of Ahmedpura, had gone to buy fodder with their 14-year-old daughter Gudiya in the afternoon. Mother and daughter were cutting grass on the banks of the Kali river passing near the village. The crocodile that came out of the river attacked the woman and pressed one hand in its jaw. The daughter hit the sickle and burst one eye of the crocodile. Due to injury, the crocodile left the woman and went into the river. Villagers and relatives reached on information. The villagers searched a lot for the crocodile, but could not find it. Relatives took the injured woman home after getting treatment from a private doctor. Halka Lekhpal reached the village and informed the higher officials about the incident.
Crocodile skin is tough. The eye is its only delicate part. Attacking the eye can cause the crocodile to loosen the grip. Attacking the crocodile with only the intention of causing harm to the eye is a violation of the Wildlife Act. There is a provision of punishment in this. Crocodiles do not have the tendency to come out of the water and attack anyone. It immediately goes into the water on any movement. Diwakar Kumar Vashisht, District Forest Officer
