This rare moment of public action, caught on camera, has now exploded online. The viral video shows the cop naming the DIG and saying, “They can only transfer me,” turning a routine day into national headlines.
Inspector Found Drunk in Uniform, Sparks Chaos in Village
A viral video shows Inspector Singh seated near thick bushes in full uniform while clearly drunk. Locals first noticed him slurring words and stumbling in the midday heat. They recorded his threats and derogatory comments aimed at the DIG, who outranked him. Shocked witnesses then contacted Dial 112 for urgent assistance, concerned by his erratic behaviour.

Village residents physically restrained the officer until backup arrived. Police arrived swiftly and took Inspector Singh into custody. Officials confirmed they will question him and review disciplinary measures. Authorities stress that misconduct will not go unpunished under any circumstances revealed in this viral video.
Is This Drunken Misconduct What\’s Expected From Inspectors?
In recent years, public trust suffered similar breaches when officers acted irresponsibly. For example, a Madhya Pradesh constable faced charges after a leaked viral video showed him sleeping on duty. In 2022, a Rajasthan sub-inspector resigned following drink-driven misconduct on public roads. Such incidents raise questions on training and discipline standards.
Citizens expect inspectors to uphold law and order, not violate it. This pattern suggests systemic lapses in supervision across police ranks. Many now demand stricter fitness tests, random sobriety checks, regular ethics workshops and clear procedures. Otherwise, public faith in law enforcement will continue eroding after every viral video.
Viral Video Triggers Public Shock, Locals Demand Strict Action
Public outcry erupted when officials viewed the clip. Anger boiled over immediately after the viral video spread online. One viewer commented, “Terminate kar dena chahiye,” expressing frustration at lenient policing. Another stated “Har thane ka yahi hal hai,” voicing resignation over widespread misconduct. A viewer warned, “Jabse kursi charasiyon ke haath mein lagi hai, sab behke-behke rehte hain,” lamenting interference.
Yet another argued, “It\’s natural… One has the right to say. Who is DIG? State cm servant or indian public servant?” reflecting scepticism about authority. These reactions underscore deep mistrust and growing demands for firm, urgent, accountable public law enforcement.
Authorities vow swift disciplinary action against the intoxicated inspector. The inquiry will assess breaches in conduct and protocol. The public demands transparent outcomes. Police leadership must restore trust with accountability measures.
