The picture tweeted by Assam's Nagaon Police to create awareness on the importance of wearing a face mask
Following the footsteps of Mumbai Police, Assam Police seems to be educating people with witty memes and inspirational posts. And their latest post featuring actors Prabhas and Pooja Hegde is picture-perfect.
Taking inspiration from the actor's latest movie Radhe Shyam, Assam Police has come up with a creative post to urge citizens to wear face masks all the time and help curb the spread of COVID-19. Giving a twist to the poster of Radhe Shyam, Assam Police drew face masks on the faces of the actors in the picture.
