An X user posted the 2:17 minute video with a Hindi caption that translates to, "For the first time in the country any #IPS officer has done such. He has shown courage, he has said absolutely truthful, unbiased and fearless statement. He deserves crores of rupees. Millions of salutations! *Akhand Bharat Awareness Campaign Team dedicated to the nation*"
