A social media uproar has followed the surfacing of videos showing the wife of a DSP in Balod, Chhattisgarh, celebrating her birthday on a government vehicle. Farheen Khan, wife of DSP Tasleem Arif, was filmed cutting a cake on the bonnet of the official car, which was fitted with a blue beacon. The use of a blue-beacon vehicle for non-official purposes, such as a birthday celebration, is a violation of government regulations.
The videos circulating online also capture the family using the government vehicle for a recreational outing at a waterfall with the doors wide open. This has fueled public criticism, with many social media users calling for action against the DSP for the apparent misuse of authority and government property. The incident underscores the need for accountability and adherence to protocols in the use of official vehicles.
