1$\begingroup$ Hi Sachin, welcome to Biology.SE! Please review our help center page and our species-identification guidelines. You must include the specimen size or some approximation of it. Also, the more specific you are about your location the better -- 2 things: 1) is "MP" Madhya Pradesh? and 2) what kind of habitat did you find this in? (urban, forest, mountain, aquatic, etc.). $\endgroup$– theforestecologist ♦Commented Jun 27, 2019 at 13:53

That is an insect, in the order Zygentoma. These are harmless, and do not bite. If you were bitten by something, it was not this?

1$\begingroup$ Who is "we". I find long-winded, padded answers extremely annoying when all the person wants to know it whether a bug can hurt them. Go ahead and remove it. I answered the question. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 29, 2019 at 12:03

2$\begingroup$ There are 550 species in that order. The OP asked which insect, not which order. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 6 at 18:02
