Is god trying to tell Maoist something :-) ..jay shiva! Wed May 2, 9:35 AM ET KATHMANDU (Reuters) - Hundreds of snakes have invaded camps housing Nepal's former Maoist fighters, infuriating their top leader, the state-run RSS news agency said Wednesday. ADVERTISEMENT Maoist chief Prachanda accused the government of ignoring the maintenance of the camps, set up under a peace deal in November that ended a decade-old civil war in which thousands of people died. "More than 700 snakes have been killed in a cantonment," RSS quoted Prachanda as saying. There are 28 camps housing 31,000 ex-guerrillas under United Nations monitoring. Prachanda did not say if any of the former guerrillas had been bitten by snakes. Nepal is a Hindu-majority country and Hindus consider snakes holy. Lord Shiva, one of the trinity of Hindu gods, is shown in pictures with a snake as his garland.
