The Story in Brief
A video of a motorcycle fitted with what is claimed to be more than 100 horns has gone viral on social media, with reports that Uttarakhand Police seized the vehicle during the Kanwar Yatra. The clip shows a policeman riding the modified motorcycle towards a police station, reportedly for investigation, but the seizure and the exact horn count could not be independently verified, Hindustan Times reports.
In a separate incident, a youth was detained in Meerut for flying a drone without permission during Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's event, officials said. The unauthorised drone was spotted at Modipuram and identified by the SWAT team, which also seized the device. SSP Avinash Pandey said a government drone had prior permission, while the second did not.
The Indian Opinion
The viral horn video invites mockery, but the real concern is an unsupervised drone over a chief minister's public event. Flying unauthorised devices near VVIPs is not a prank, and the detention is justifiable. Yet police must avoid overreach in the festive season, when many youths fly small drones without malicious intent. The test is whether the youth faces a proportionate fine or a disproportionate, years-long legal ordeal, and whether the police deliver a clear, factual statement on the drone's model and flight path.
