The man was seen wearing a helmet, while the woman was sitting in a risky manner on the fuel tank as they rode through the Ramgarhtal Road in broad daylight.

"Arrest them.... When a video is available of a serious traffic law violation. Strict actions will only set rules, not leniency," another user said.
Viral Video Of Aura Farming On Car
This is not the first such case; last month, police took action over a viral video that showed a 24-year-old woman, named Nazmeen Sulde, dancing barefoot on the bonnet of a moving Mercedes-Benz car in Kharghar, Navi Mumbai. A video of the incident went viral on social media platforms, sparking outrage. A man named Al-fesh Shaikh, reported to be her boyfriend, was driving the vehicle. Sulde performed the popular "Aura Farming Dance" trend, recreating an 11-year-old boy from Indonesia who danced on a moving boat during a race.
