A gorilla‑costumed mascot, overseen by Additional DCP Crime Rajesh Dandotia and traffic police, guided drivers and escorted elderly pedestrians at a busy Indore intersection.

A gorilla‑costumed character descended on a crowded junction in Indore under the watch of Additional DCP Crime Rajesh Dandotia and traffic police officials.\nThe mascot stopped traffic briefly to remind motorists of key safety rules such as using zebra crossings, avoiding wrong‑side driving, and wearing helmets and seat belts.\nIt then personally escorted a group of senior citizens across the road, ensuring they could cross without risk.\nPolice officials said the demonstration was part of a broader effort to reinforce road‑safety awareness among commuters, especially during peak hours.\nThe unusual sight attracted attention from onlookers and was reported by local media as a creative approach to traffic education.
