The job of a police officer is one of the most resilient ones around and can also turn out to be monotonous. However, Chandrakant Hutgi, a head constable from Hubli Rural Police station, has come up with a highly creative way to overcome his boredom.
In a bid to make his job more interesting, the 52-year-old man converted his thick fibrous lathi into a flute. Now, that’s what we call creativity!
Not only did he transform his lathi into the musical instrument but was also caught playing it. The video was shared by IPS (Indian Police Service) officer Bhaskar Rao, the Additional Director General of Police, Bangalore.
