Pune Police’s sweet gesture got everyone talking online and has an overwhelming response.
After people asked them if they had any plans for Valentine’s Day, the Pune Police invited local residents for a special ‘chai date’ with the police commissioner.
Netizens who respond to the invite on Twitter will meet the commissioner at 6 pm in his office where they can have tea and discuss issues. The official handle also said that the police were happy to host as many people as possible.

On your demand, we have even revised the meeting time to 6:00 pm
