Mumbai Police has once again captured the hearts of netizens by blending festive greetings with crucial social awareness campaigns. On Christmas Day, the city's police department shared innovative posts on social media, addressing issues like cyber fraud and drug abuse while wishing everyone a "Merry Christmas."

Creative campaigns for a purpose

The Mumbai Police shared two attention-grabbing posts to mark the holiday. These messages, in line with their tradition of engaging and informative content, carried a festive tone while addressing serious issues. The posts aimed to educate the public in an entertaining yet impactful manner.

One of the posts tackled the issue of drug abuse. Featuring a graphic of Santa Claus riding his sleigh on a white powdered path, the message read, "Only Santa is allowed to fly high." This clever twist encouraged people to stay away from drugs. The caption reinforced the message with a humorous yet firm warning: “Be on Santa’s nice list, or you could end up on our naughty list.”

A scam-free new year

The second post focused on cyber security, urging people to avoid falling prey to online frauds. The post showcased a staged conversation between a scammer and an aware individual. When the scammer tried to extract personal details under the guise of offering surprise gifts, the vigilant user responded with “No no no” instead of sharing sensitive information. The caption wished everyone a Merry Christmas and “a scam-free New Year.”

Viral impact

These witty posts have garnered widespread appreciation online. Their creative presentation and humorous tone resonated with Instagram users, many of whom reacted with laughter emojis and praised the department’s unique approach to spreading awareness.
