The Mumbai Police had to face a strange conundrum on Twitter on Thursday when a man asked them how he could go meet his girlfriend as he misses her.
A user tagged the Mumbai Police asking what sticker he could use so that he would be allowed to step out and see his beloved: "what sticker should I use in order to go out and meet my girlfriend? I miss her."
The response had Twitterati in splits! And perhaps a lesson for all of us missing our loved ones in the pandemic: "Distance makes the heart grow fonder & currently, you healthier"
"We understand it’s essential for you sir but unfortunately it doesn’t fall under our essentials or emergency categories! Distance makes the heart grow fonder & currently, you healthier
P.S. We wish you lifetime together. This is just a phase," the Mumbai Police tweeted.
We understand it’s essential for you sir but unfortunately it doesn’t fall under our essentials or emergency categories!
