    Such a Pathetic country, stray dogs are not killed for nuisance they make but human beings are, very soon we may hear a case like person shot dead for overspeeding and not stopping on police stop, Ishrant Jahan killing is a criminal offence but this is not...pathetic India and Indians...ashamed to be one

    100% parents mistake.

    parents is not able to teach simple meaning of bike.

    that is bike not for stunt but useful work.

    dear police pls. catch all stunt biker and ask them to clean public toilet at least for one month.

    then before they do any stunt they will remember 100 years.

    Dear Ganesh,
    Such notorious elements have no fear of Police, do you think would listen to Parents?
    Some children are spoiled in the
    bad Company.
    It's not possible for busy working parents, who work to meet both ends to keep a vouch on all movements of children.
    Again whenever their children are far, its not easy for parents vouch the children.

    If Stunt men are known notorious elements then in the overall interest of the people, Police action should be complimented.

    What is this nonsense? performing stunts at 2.00 am and when police arrive, re-grouping and pelting stones at Police?

    Because of such People, rapes and crimes have increased in Delhi.

    Well-done Police.
    Already given instruction not to ply in Parliament Street.
    It's now automatically will stop to do bike stunts at night.
    It's after all matter of security.
