In a recent incident that has sparked outrage and concern, two male police officers from the Punjab police are under investigation for filming their female colleagues without permission and sharing the video on TikTok, a popular social media platform.
The video, which has been widely shared on Twitter, depicts female police officers engaged in a meeting, completely unaware that they were being recorded. Adding to the controversy, the officers superimposed a Bollywood song onto the video while wearing unprofessional expressions. The incident has raised questions about the privacy and respect owed to colleagues, especially within professional settings.
The video first came to public attention when it circulated on Twitter, catching the eye of netizens who quickly condemned the officers’ behavior. The Punjab Police’s official Twitter account responded promptly, issuing a statement denouncing the actions displayed in the video. The department expressed its commitment to upholding the dignity and rights of its officers, regardless of their gender.
As a result of the swift backlash and public outcry, the Punjab Police have launched an investigation into the matter. The two male officers responsible for filming and sharing the video without consent are now facing potential disciplinary actions, pending the outcome of the investigation. The department has emphasized that such behavior is not reflective of the values and principles upheld by the police force.
The incident has also sparked a broader conversation about the appropriate use of social media and technology within professional settings. Many are calling for stricter guidelines and education around the responsible use of social platforms, particularly when it involves colleagues’ privacy and personal space.

This incident underscores the need for continuous training, awareness, and strict consequences for breaches of professional conduct, ensuring a safer and more respectful working environment for all members of the force.
