Cops in Utter Pradesh state of India have taken up a new job. Cops of Kakrauli police station, in Muzaffarnagar, have been reduced to mere snake charmers. For, they prefer to carry a "Been(snake charmers musical instrument)" to a baton or bullets.
They are forced to do so to avoid the poisonous snakes, that visit the police station every now and then.
Though the police officers posted at Kakrauli have tried every possible method to curb the menace, nothing has proved effective. Not even a four-feet-deep pit dug around the police station boundary wall or appointing a professional snake charmer, has rid the premise of the reptiles.
