The video shared on social media starts where traffic cop is seen clinging to the hood of the car with his e-challan machine. Singh is heard rebuking the driver and asks cops to take away his car keys.
The woman who was in the car with the driver is heard threatening cops with legal action.
The woman in the video tries to snatch away the phone used to record video says, "Excuse me! What are you doing? I will sue you."
Even the driver was fined, Singh demanded stricter action against the man. To justify his demand of strict action, Singh said the cop risked his life to perform his duty and thus deserves strict punishment.
Singh told ANI, "Earlier, police had assured of a proper inquiry but when I called to follow up on the incident I was informed that the driver was allowed to go following a challan after they got a call from a senior official."
