Guwahati: Assam police is doing a commendable job, both on field — with its swift action — and off the field on Twitter, where its humour has gained a huge fan following. So much so that popular stand-up comedian Papa CJ applauded them.
In a tweet, the comedian praised the state police’s job and “sense of humour”:
@assampolice – for the job done and the sense of humour 🙂 https://t.co/M3SX8xOZXE
