IPS Officer Pankaj Nain shared a video of the man interacting with police, on his Twitter handle. Nain wrote, "After drinking, the public remembers the police. Since the man did not see the police car for 2 days, he drunk dialled them at 112 . The incident is from Panchkula. ( PS - Police resources are already scarce , don't misuse them )".
In the video, the man can be heard saying, “The train at five o'clock in the evening was not coming. I was walking and didn't see any cars. So I wanted to call and see whether the police were working or not.”
"I had beer around half an hour back. Just wanted to check if the police arrives", the man further added. The police strongly questioned him for a trivial call. The man is 42-years old and has been identified as Naresh Kumar of Tapriya village of Raipurrani.
