The influencers, Shivangi Dabas and Sneha Rajvanshi, were issued fines by the Ghaziabad traffic police for several traffic violations after their videos went viral.

The videos, uploaded on Instagram, came to the attention of Ghaziabad police. The challans were sent to Manju Devi and Sanjay Kumar, who own the two bikes used by Dabas and Rajvanshi.

"The two bike owners have been issued challans on various counts of traffic rule violations, which include driving without licence, performing stunts at public places without permission, faulty number plates and triple riding. The combined challan amounts to Rs 28,000," said Ramanand Kushwaha, SP (traffic), Ghaziabad, to The Times of India.

In a video message on Wednesday, Dabas, who belongs to Ghaziabad, said that the stunts were not filmed on a highway, as reported earlier, but near a construction area not frequented by many.
She said she had already received a number of challans - one for Rs 11,000 and another for Rs 17,000 and requested the police department to stop issuing more.
"Till when we will pay fines. We know we made a mistake. It won't happen again," said Dabas.

Dabas said that she and Rajvanshi had just received their learner's licence. She said they performed the stunts on Saturday, not knowing it would snowball into a controversy.
"Ever since the video went viral, we have been severely reprimanded by our parents. They will probably not allow us to ride the bike anytime soon," she added.
