Man Tweets To US Salem Police Instead Of Tamil Nadu Salem for Complaint
A man by the name Arunanand TA who is from Cochin tagged the US Salem police department in his tweet about the incident which happened in Tamil Nadu. He wrongly tagged the police department in the US to complain about the exorbitant price charged by autorickshaw drivers in Salem Yercaud. The driver charged Rs 50 for 1.5 km and he asked the police if they can intervene and solve the issue. The US Salem Police Department even replied to his tweet saying they are from Oregon, USA. And then, everything got escalated.
. @SalemPoliceDept are you aware that the auto rickshaws overcharge tourists in #Yercaud ?Rs. 50/- for 1.5km. Is there a system that looks into such issues here? @CMOTamilNadu @dinakaranonline @dinathanthi @VisitYercaud @twttdc
