After giving a “savage” reply to an internet user who asked the outcome of going out during a lockdown, Pune Police is again winning hearts by intervening a conversation between two friends who were discussing to meet amid coronavirus outbreak. The conversation started when one friend with user name ‘Jaggu’ told a person with the username ‘Parth’ that they will meet before the nationwide lockdown ends on May 3.
However, Parth who initially noted that meeting was not possible until the government lifts the lockdown, later said on April 14 that they can definitely set a meet as they live closer and asked to set a day. This is when Pune Police entered the conversation with a befitting reply to Parth and said even “we would like to join” the meet and asked for time and place.
