No matter how glum the day is at work, all it takes is some time goofing around with colleagues to turn your mood around. Come on, how many times has that tea break turned into a “million ways I could torment my boss” brainstorm session? Though imaginary, at the end of it, you are left feeling way better than before. However, as fun as these fooling around sessions can be, we do have to remember to make sure not to let our job suffer for it.
A couple of policemen from Uttar Pradesh learned this lesson the hard way after a video of them dancing while on duty, went viral.
With their vehicle parked under a tree, the two are having a gala time with a few other men.
The UP cops who are both in uniform can be seen letting their happy feet run free to what sounds like a Bhojpuri song.
After a while, someone can be heard in the background asking them to stop their antics. But, as fun as it is to watch them dance their hearts out, the viral video has come to bite them in the ass.
According to the Indian Express, the cops were on dial 100 duty under the Uttar Pradesh Police Emergency Management System at the time.
As the video went viral, an inquiry has been ordered into the incident. Watch them dance to their heart’s content here:

Netizens though are of the opinion that there is nothing wrong with what the cops have done:
What is wrong with a Policeman dancing during duty hours, it is always better than taking bribes.

I seen workplace dance trends in some IT industry…so nothing wrong in this clip.if it helps cop to get distressed then I would say it should be mandatory for cops to dance 5 minutes daily. They have lots of pressure and their job is very difficult. Commenting here is very easy.

What do you think? Were the cops right in letting their inner Prabhu Deva run free while on duty?
