Viral Video: In an unexpected twist after the celebrations of Independence Day, four police officers from Nagpur’s Gandhibagh area have been suspended for three months after a video of them dancing in uniform while on duty went viral.

The officers, ASI Sanjay Patankar, Head Constable Abdul Qayyum Gani, Bhagyashree Giri, and Constable Nirmala Gawli, were seen dancing to the Bollywood hit "Khaike Paan Banaraswala" on August 15th.

The video, shared on social media, quickly went viral, eliciting mixed reactions from the public.

While some defended the officers, arguing that they deserved a moment of joy, others criticized their actions, believing that such behavior was inappropriate for on-duty police officers. The viral clip soon caught the attention of senior officials.

Taking the matter seriously, Zone-3 in-charge DCP Rahul Madne issued a suspension order for all four officers. The suspension highlights the need for discipline within the police force and the responsibility officers have to maintain a respectful image while in uniform.
