The Mumbai Police have been known for putting out really cool tweets to get their message across to the citizenry. The purpose of these tweets is to get people’s attention and not just give them a laugh. They do mean business when they say such things. And if you ask me, these quips are much better than those old government ads that no one paid attention to. I’m sure a ton of us prefer this quirky yet direct method. And since the entire world is on Twitter and on social media, the Mumbai Police has recently made great use of it.
Like, remember when the Commissioner of Mumbai Police sent out these tweets?
If you roll, we will weed you out. #HoshMeinAao

And if you’re thinking that you belong to an influential family or are a superstar and you can get away with anything. Well, my friend, it’s not going to matter, even if you are the Prince of Persia.
They still insist that you won’t get away with it.
