Business people, celebrities and common people use social media a lot to voice their opinions. However, these days, we see police personnel using Twitter a lot to highlight serious issues and spreading awareness on various issues with the help of witty tweets and posts.
It is highly appreciable that in order to incorporate better law and order, government organisations are embracing new ways on social media to connect with people.
Just have a look at the various posts by the Delhi Police.

@DelhiPolice and @dtptraffic urges everyone to Not Drink and Drive.#YaDrinkYaDrive.
There will be ZERO tolerance towards this offence as it endangers both driver and road users. pic.twitter.com/iu2GSJnQAm— Delhi Police (@DelhiPolice) December 2, 2017

2. Seat belt campaign
May I request you to also issue advisory for #LaneDriving and make it a success as with the compulsory #SeatBeltCampaign. Traffic would be much easy to manage and prevent de congestion and risk to life by errant drivers!

Interacting with common people through social media and solving their problems is highly appreciable. Hope this will continue and government organisations will look into common people social problems and try to solve it.
