"Delhi police is on a roll," commented a third user. "Ganji chudail is the new face of Delhi police," said another. "We got ganji chudail in a helmet before GTA 6," commented one user.

Someone commented, “How many challans cut so far of E-Rickshaw running on Ring Roads for safety of 2 Wheelers ? Come and see from Azadpur to Britania chowk.”

Earlier incidents:

In September, ahead of singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh's mega concert at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi, Delhi Police alerted people to beware of online fraud involving links that promise concert tickets.

Warning people to be cautious, the video, titled "Gana sunne ke chakkar me ticket ke liye galat link par paise puse dekar apna band naa bajwa lena" (Don't pay money to book concert tickets and get scammed by clicking a wrong link, always verify first) was posted.
