A heated argument ensued in the middle of the road.

Some users also questioned the security personnel’s actions. One asked, “Is the army allowed to raise hands on civilians?” Another user expressed support for stricter traffic enforcement, saying, “I am all for giving traffic police, including the home guards who help at traffic lights, the right to use the lathi on offenders. Make it a public offense that deserves punishment on the spot. This nuisance and risk needs to be mitigated.”
