A man was captured on video yelling and slapping a person he believed to be a ‘terrorist’ inside a crowded temple in Dhule, Maharashtra. The incident has gained traction on various social media platforms.
The video clip reveals a masked individual, posing as a ‘terrorist’, holding a worshipper hostage at gunpoint. A young girl, overwhelmed by the sudden intrusion of the perpetrator, bursts into tears. In response to this distressing sight, her father, identified as Prashant Kulkarni, aged 35, confronts the ‘terrorist’ and delivers two resounding slaps, while shouting, “Do you possess any semblance of intelligence?”
Online users ridiculed the mock drill, highlighting the lack of seriousness evident in the proceedings. One individual remarked, “This incident reminds me of fire drills in the workplace, where staff nonchalantly descend the stairs, engaging in laughter, conversations, and even holding cups of tea. It appears this drill was no different.”
Another user on Twitter quipped, “Perhaps he thought they were filming an Instagram reel.”
