A picture is circulated on social media sites with a claim that a Muslim guy is beating a traffic police officer.
Pushpendra kulshreshta, a Facebook user shares a picture that writes, “Be independent, stay organized. Never rely on the police for security. Watch this attitude carefully. The picture is of the Ghantaghar area of Jodhpur.. Orders to remove the encroachment, But when action was taken on the carts standing in disarray, the jihadis surrounded and this behavior happened with the police constable. The policeman is a traffic constable, named Shobharam. It is enough to be afraid that the attitude he is showing and the people standing around him … belong to the dear special-72 community of the government.
Where is this courage coming from? Because of its religious belief? Or because of its strong social shield….? One-way voting? These are only 8% in Rajasthan
It is known that even if this constable is killed, this system cannot spoil it in any way.”(Translates Hindi)
