Krishna – the eighth incarnation of the preserver God Vishnu, killing the demoness Putana, who had come with an intention to breast-feed infant Krishna with poisonous milk.
Krishna’s maternal uncle Kansa, who was an evil king and had kept his parents – Vasudeva and Devaki – in the captivity, had sent the demoness Putana to kill infant Krishna. Putana transformed herself into a beautiful cowherd girl and went to Krishna’s house to breastfeed him with her poisonous milk. Krishna’s foster mother, Yashoda, believing Putana as a cowherd girl allowed her to breastfeed his son. Krishna, being the incarnation of God Vishnu, understood the true identity of Putana and sucked the life out of Putana. Putana screamed and ran outside the house to save herself from Krishna, but Krishna still cling on to her, transforming back to her demon form and finally died.
