Mainpuri, January 5: A disturbing scene from Mainpuri city has sparked concern among residents after a video showing reckless bike riders harassing young girls went viral on social media. This incident has been recorded in a very narrow road of Kotwali, where bikers were seen moving very rashly and creating panic and openly misbehaving with girls returning from tuition classes.
The video, shared by a user on X (formerly Twitter), features some youngsters riding bikes at a high speed in residential lanes, beeping horns, and making obscene comments against female students. At several points, the bikers appear to deliberately slow down near the girls and commenting on them.
