Influencers and content producers can frequently be observed in public capturing quick films or Instagram reels in the social media age. Even though these films can receive a lot of views and likes, they can also annoy and inconvenience the general population. One such instance resulted in a woman getting into trouble after Gujarat police observed her breaking traffic laws by practicing yoga in the middle of the road. She was apprehended by the authorities and had to make amends for her careless actions.
In a video posted by the Gujarat police on X, a woman identified as Dina Parmar is seen obstructing traffic by performing yoga poses in the middle of a busy road while wearing red clothing. Even though it was raining, Ms. Parmar was initially observed performing a split in the middle of the road. She then started to do a yoga stance as some approaching vehicles stopped behind her.
The woman then begins to apologize for her conduct in the following scene of the video. She stated that, aside from one video, she abides by all traffic laws and urges that others do the same. After paying the fine, Ms. Parmar was allowed to leave.

સાર્વજનિક સ્થળોનો આ રીતે દુરુપયોગ ન કરવો જોઇએ, જેથી કોઈ દુર્ઘટના તથા આકસ્મિક બનાવ ન સર્જાય.#FollowTrafficRules pic.twitter.com/HloCp8YPbY

Gujarat police urged people to abide by traffic laws and issued a warning about abusing public spaces in the caption.
Internet users praised Gujarat police for acting and criticized those who endanger their own and others’ lives for a few likes. Others called for the harsh punishment of such offenders.
Now she’ll never do that again, a user said. A different person said, “First Garba on the road, then yoga on the road. Roads are dangerous to use because of these folks. I was shocked to learn that someone would pull such a prank to gain popularity and a few likes on social media.
