"These are the crazy things done in the name of 'Valentine's Day'!! Some couples are posting videos like this on social media, claiming to have achieved some kind of feat, such as performing amazing stunts on the occasion of Valentine's Day," Sajjanar said in an X post.
"You may find these bizarre stunts performed at high speed and in a dangerous manner to be fun, but imagine what would happen if an unavoidable accident occurred. It is dangerous to perform dangerous stunts on the roads to become famous on social media. Do not cause accidents by doing such adventures and causing distress to your family members," he added.
