The house is among the many similar ones located on a small hillock. The deer fell on the roof, crashed the roof and fell inside.
In a video which went viral on social media, the bewildered deer can be seen sitting next to an LPG stove, a steel cupboard and an empty bed, while the blue light from a TV, apparently left switched on by the residents before going to sleep, flickers.
An NGO member working on rescuing urban wildlife said that many in the locality were shocked and were woken up by the sudden loud noise the deer crashed through the roof.
Santosh Kank, the Range Forest Officer said that the deer fell through the cement sheet roof after another animal chased him.
“We rescued the deer after being informed by locals,” he said. The deer was taken to the Sanjay Gandhi National Park where it is being treated, he added.
Nobody was injured, he said, adding that four to five people were sleeping in the house when the deer came crashing.
