A disturbing video is doing rounds on social media in which a truck can be seen running over a policeman after cops tried to stop the truck. It is being claimed that the incident took place in India after the amendment in the Motor Vehicles Act.
The caption with the video read: “The #IndianGovernment has made serious mistakes in the amendment in #MVAct2019, which have had unfortunate repercussions long after the decisions were taken.
Feel so sorry for the cop who was crushed to death on road just to avoid the unfair chalaan obtruded by government.”
