Following the incident, local residents ran for safety. One of them, however, moved towards the car to help the occupant. No casualties or injuries were reported immediately. The vehicle was, however, gutted in the fire. It was later seized by the police. A fine was imposed on the accused.
This is not the first incident involving a vehicle and firecrackers that has occurred in recent times. A similar incident was reported last month, where firecrackers were set off from the roof of a private vehicle in Chandigarh, prompting police to take immediate action against the accused.
Last year during Diwali, several videos of young men setting off firecrackers from the roofs of moving cars in Gurugram surfaced on social media.
In view of the incidents, Gurugram police laid emphasis on the seriousness of the matter and took legal action against the individuals involved in such incidents. Several provisions under the Motor Vehicles Act empower the police to initiate action and impose fines on offenders.
