In a bizarrely embarrassing incident, a rat bit a passenger in the departure waiting area of the Devi Ahilyabai Holkar International Airport of Indore in Madhya Pradesh.

As per airport officials, a male passenger travelling from Indore to Bengaluru was bitten by a rat inside the departure lounge on Tuesday.

Airport Director Vipinkant Seth said the airport doctor and medical staff immediately attended to the passenger and administered an injection, and also provided antibiotic medicines.

The official said that pest control was also carried out soon after the incident.

Just a few days ago, two newborn baby girls died after they were bitten by big rats inside the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of the Maharaja Yeshwantrao Hospital (MYH) of Indore, which is one of the biggest government hospitals of Madhya Pradesh.
