The Statesman
|November 04, 2024
In a twist to the traditional Bhai Phonta celebrations, some "brothers" found themselves on the receiving end on Sunday.
At a busy road crossing, women traffic police officers were seen offering phonta (ritualistic tilak) to male motorcyclists who were not wearing helmets.
As a gift for the occasion, traffic police officers Sania Singh and Namita Basu Mondal also distributed new helmets to 67 such offenders.
