In Pic Minor Boys ( face blurred ) who were punished by City Police
Nagpur: At a time when the youngsters were going extra mile to show up their Independence Day revelry, most of them were caught breaking traffic rules too. However this time cops showed generosity in handing out punishment to them. In an inspiring move, Nagpur police made youngsters, who caught violating traffic rules, do 50 sit-ups as a punishment.
The incident took place opposite Telankhedi Mandir at Futala where youngsters, (including some below 18 years of age), were caught riding triple seat that too sans helmet. It may be mentioned that on Monday morning, three girls riding triple seat without helmet met tragic end on Ambazari road when they accidentally hit a slow moving hydra machine engaged in Metro rail works.
Meanwhile, on Independence Day most of the youngsters also created a ruckus and disturbed the law and order situation of the city. The police also made an announcement through their patrolling vehicles requesting citizens to abide by the traffic rules and follow safety measures.
Senior Police Inspector at Traffic Chamber 2, Atul Sabnis, said “Such people should be ashamed of themselves. They don’t have any moral and social responsibility. They were creating ruckus and were behaving like hooligans. Such people must be taught a lesson.
