Hindustan (Hindi: हिन्दुस्तान ; Urdu: ہندوستان ; IAST: Hindustān ; [ɦɪnd̪ʊˈst̪aːn]; pronunciation ;) is a common geographic term for the northern/northwestern Indian subcontinent.
Hindustan is derived from the Modern Persian word Hindū. In Old Persian, the region beyond the Indus River was referred to as Hinduš (the Iranic equivalent of Sanskrit Sindhu), hence Modern Persian Hind, Hindū. This combined with the Persian suffix -stān (meaning literally "place", and having the same origin as the Sanskrit word sthān and the English word "stand") results in Hindustan, "land of Hind". By about the first century BC, the term "Hein-tu" was used by the Chinese to refer to North Indian people. The term came into common use under the rule of the Mughals, who referred to their dominion, centered on Delhi, as 'Hindustan'.
The term "Hindustan" has been historically applied to the Gangetic Plain of North India, between the Himalayas and the Vindhyas and the Indus river basin in Pakistan.

But the python was rescued by Sorav Borkotoki, who has so far rescued 500 snakes and pythons, after he was called in for help. Visuals captured on mobile camera show the giant wriggly reptile coiled around the black goat as it prepares to devour it but is stopped by the rescuer. The passionate wildlife lover smoothly gets hold of the python, opens its mouth and takes out the goat as shocked villagers watch in sheer horror. But u...
