Maha Metro on mythological track; Yamraj, Chitragupt to address traffic violators in Nagpur
Maha Metro, with an intention to promote the importance of following traffic rules has launched an unique and interesting campaign in Nagpur. As part of the campaign, Maha Metro has given the task to a few actors to play mythological characters such Yamraj, Chitagupt, Bhima, Lord Krishna, etc. on the road and urge traffic violators to follow traffic rules.
The Maha Metro campaign, which was launched last week, is going on in full swing and seems to be quite a hit. Yamraj? and Chitragupt? from Maha Metro were recently spotted on a busy city road urging helmet-less bikers to wear helmets and car drivers to fasten their seat belts. These mythological characters also went to a couple of schools in Nagpur to promote the importance of adhering to traffic rules.

Billboards that mention Shubham Gill
Indian cricketer Umesh Yadav had a ‘field day’ teasing his team member Shubham Gill after Tinder – a popular dating app – showed a photo of a girl with a placard on large billboards in Nagpur that read, “Shubman idhar toh dekh lo” (Shubman, have a look here).” Tinder was quick to capitalise on the joke and turn it into hoardings in Nagpur ahead of India first Test match vs Australia.
Taking to twitter, Yadav wrote, “Poora Nagpur bol raha hai, Shubman Gill ab toh dekh le.”

The survey that released pictures of the same showed increased levels of SO2 and NO2 not just in Nagpur but in cities including Chandrapur, Gondia and Amravati. Environmental experts have said that the matter was worrying from the point of view of the health of the residents as the pollution index in Nagpur saw an increase in all the three months of winter.
