Ashwin Vinod, a resident of Mumbai, tagged Mumbai Police in a post urging them to let him meet his gir๊lꩵfriend. The witty and humorous response of Mumbai Police is wining the hearts of the netizens.
Currently, Section 144 of the CrPC has been put in force in Mumbai that prohibits the assembly of five or more people in one place. The act is in force in other parts of the state as well to bring down the Covid-19 cases in Maharashtra. The city's police has made it mandatory for the vehicles engaged in emergency/🎐essential services to put up colour- coded stickers in order to limi▨t the vehicular movement.
Police are implementing the prohibitory oꦍrders in a strict manner and action is b🍨eing taken against the vehicles, which are out on the streets without any valid reason.
Against this backdrop, a Twitter user named Ashwin Vinod tagged the Mumbai police and tweeted 𝄹that he wanted to meet his girlfriend, and asked which sticker he should use for his vehicle to move out.
"@Mumb🐎aiPolice what sticker should I use in order to go out and meet my girlfriend? I miss her," he said.
In its response, the Mumbai police said his requirement does not fall under the category of essential𒈔 or emergency services, an♒d requested him to stay at home.
"We understand it's essential for you sir but unfortunately it doesn't fall under our essentials or em♍ergency categories! Distance makes the heart grow fonder & currently, you healthier. P.S. We wish you lifetime together. This is just a phase," the Mumbai police tweeted with the hashtag #StayHomeStaySafe.
The reply by the police was well received and widely app🦂reciated by the users on the micro-blogging ไsite.
