In the present era of social media, influencers and content creators frequently record brief videos or Instagram reels in public places.

She was found violating traffic regulations by practicing yoga right in the middle of a busy road. Authorities promptly apprehended her and she tendered an apology for her act.

Taking to 'X' platform, Gujarat Police shared the video stating that the woman who violated traffic rules and performed yoga in public on the road apologised Rajkot police. The police advised public not to violate traffic rules.

ટ્રાફિકના નિયમોનું ઉલ્લંઘન કરી રસ્તા વચ્ચે જાહેરમાં યોગ કરતી મહિલાને રાજકોટ પોલીસ દ્વારા કાયદાનું ભાન કરાવી માફી મંગાવવામાં આવી.

સાર્વજનિક સ્થળોનો આ રીતે દુરુપયોગ ન કરવો જોઇએ, જેથી કોઈ દુર્ઘટના તથા આકસ્મિક બનાવ ન સર્જાય.#FollowTrafficRules pic.twitter.com/HloCp8YPbY
