Twitter user asks Mumbai Police how he can meet his girlfriend in lockdown
Mumbai Police wins heart with reply
Mumbai: A Twitter user on Thursday asked Mumbai Police by tagging them in a tweet how he can meet his girlfriend adding that he was missing her.
The user named Ashwin Vinod asked what sticker he should use (on his vehicle) to come out on the road to meet his girlfriend.
“@MumbaiPolice what sticker should I use in order to go out and meet my girlfriend? I miss her” he wrote in the tweet.
Although it was a funny tweet, it was Mumbai Police’s reply that was fonder and heart-winning. The official handle of Mumbai Police added that it understands the need was essential for the user but said “unfortunately it doesn’t fall under our essentials or emergency categories!”.
It further added the distance makes the heart grow fonder and in times like these, it keeps people healthier, it then wished the user “lifetime together” adding this was just a phase.

Curbs on movement, assembly remain in force in Kashmir after protests against Khamenei's killing
Srinagar (PTI): Normal life in Kashmir was affected for the fifth consecutive day as partial restrictions on movement of people remained in force as a precautionary measure.
The restrictions were imposed on Monday after spontaneous protests broke out across Kashmir a day earlier against the killing of Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in US-Israel joint strikes.
Chief minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday held a meeting with civil society representatives and religious leaders as part of efforts to bring the situation back to normalcy.

After the meeting, Abdullah appealed to people to maintain peace while expressing grief and anger in "mosques, shrines and Imambaras".
The government has shut educational institutions till Saturday, and reduced mobile internet speeds.
"Restrictions on the movement and assembly of the people continued in many parts of Kashmir on Thursday," the officials said.
A large number of police and paramilitary CRPF personnel were deployed across the city to prevent gatherings of protestors, the officials said.
They added that concertina wires and barricades were placed at important intersections leading into the city, while asserting that these were precautionary measures imposed to maintain law and order.
The iconic Ghanta Ghar in the city centre of Lal Chowk here continued to remain a no-go zone after the authorities sealed area with barricades erected all around it on late Sunday night.
The move to seal the Ghanta Ghar came after it witnessed massive protests on Sunday after Khamenei's assassination in the joint air strikes by the US and Israel.
This is the first time since August 2019 -- when Article 370 was revoked -- that protests on such a large scale have taken place in Kashmir.
