"If you are a true friend…": Delhi Police gives epic reply on query to step out to meet a friend
New Delhi : Ever since coronavirus has entered Indian borders, the only advice that has been given to the people is staying indoors. In a bid to contain the virus, PM Narendra Modi has announced a complete 21-day lockdown in the nation.
To keep the confusion less among the citizens, the authorities have started different initiatives where people can ask their queries. So, when a user of the micro-blogging site had an "essential" question to ask, Delhi Police took it upon themselves to come up with an apt reply.
"Sir main within 2km k under apne dost k ghar ja skta hun kisi kaam se? [Sir, can I visit my friend’s house which is within 2 kms?]" asked a Twitter user using the hashtag #LockDownQuery.

Translated, the department’s reply reads, “if you are a true friend stay at home. Do video call.”
People on social media gave a huge thumbs up to the police department for the reply.
“Aaj dil jeet liya Delhi Police ne [Delhi police won my heart],” wrote a Twitter user. “What an awesome reply,” commented another. “Just to the point,” tweeted a third. “Haha! Bohot hard, bohot hard hai Delhi Police,” another used a dialogue from Ranveer Singh starrer film Gully Boy.
