A few years ago, a video of a traffic constable in Indore went viral in which he can be seen using his dance moves to manage the traffic.

Traffic constable Ranjit Singh became a local celebrity in the city for using late pop icon Michael Jackson's famous "moonwalk" to control the traffic. His creative and fun way of working made him a local celebrity on social media, with people approaching him for selfies.

In 2018, a video of Pratap Chandra Khandwal, a home guard and a traffic police personnel in Odisha, went viral showing him dancing in the middle of the road to keep the commuters from breaking traffic laws. Khandwal's distinctive ways to control the traffic caught the social media's eye and many dubbed as the "dancing traffic cop".
