Delhi Police has long mastered the art of mixing public service with pop culture. But their latest social media post might just be their most viral move yet. In an unexpected crossover between celebrity gossip and civic awareness, the capital’s law enforcement decided to swing for the memes—this time aiming their wit at none other than Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli.
On Instagram, the Delhi Police posted what seemed like a standard traffic warning. But fans scrolling through quickly realized it wasn’t just about road safety—it was a cleverly masked nod to Kohli’s recent social media slip. The message subtly referenced the cricketer’s much-talked-about accidental “like” on a fan account dedicated to actress Avneet Kaur.
“We would like to clarify that while checking our cameras, it appears the algorithm has registered many interactions. It aims to punish the speeders and traffic rule violators. We request that no unnecessary speeding and stunts be done on public roads. Challans will be issued to the violators. Thank you for your understanding,” wrote Delhi Police.
For those who missed the saga, fans noticed that Kohli had liked a photo of Avneet in a breezy green outfit. Though the post was soon unliked, screenshots had already taken over the internet. Memes flew thick and fast, and jokes flooded platforms like Instagram and X (formerly Twitter). Kohli had then responded to the fuss with a now-viral Instagram story: “I’d like to clarify that while clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction… There was absolutely no intent behind it.”

While Kohli faced his share of trolling off the field, his on-field performances have left no room for criticism. The former RCB captain has been in sensational touch this IPL season and currently holds the coveted Orange Cap. With 505 runs in 11 matches, Kohli sits atop the run-scorers’ chart, boasting a stellar average of 63.13. His consistency has been remarkable, notching up seven fifties and anchoring RCB’s impressive campaign. Despite the off-field noise, Kohli has once again shown why he remains one of the fiercest competitors in the game.
