My grandmother has this habit of waking up early in the morning and sitting on the balcony to guard our garden so that no one comes and steals our flowers. I used to think that it was a very stupid thing to do because, who wants to wake up at 6 in the morning to steal flowers, right? But I was wrong. There are plenty of people who wake up early just for that!
Having said that, two men in Gurugram, who own an expensive car by the brand Kia, were spotted stealing flower pots that were arranged for the G20 Summit at Shankar Chowk. A video of the incident was shared on Twitter by a journalist named Raj Verma.
“At Shankar Chowk in Gurugram #Kia car rider blew up the pots of plants in broad daylight,” he tweeted.
Have a look at the video here:

In the video, we see two men loading their car with multiple flower pots before driving away.
Several people online condemned this act by the two men and shared the car number by zooming into the video so that Gurugram Police could identify them and hold them accountable.

It’s not like they cannot afford to go to a local nursery and buy flower pots for themselves. Such a shame!
