Looks like it is not only tipplers who were waiting for lockdown norms to be relaxed and liquor shops to be opened to quench their thirst. Police too were eagerly awaiting to alleviate some COVID duty stress.

A constable attached to Chitradurga Rural Station was so desperate that he did not even care that he was in uniform. He gate-crashed the liquor party being held in an agriculture field and started drinking.

The incident occurred in Pallavagere, Karnataka, hours after liquor shops opened yesterday.

The cop, identified as Chavan, is seen helping himself to some snacks on the side as well
