Meanwhile, on videos of a police inspector and staff dancing going viral, the commissioner clarified that during dasara celebrations, all the officers and staff along with performing teams had taken part and performed. This incident has no connection with the alcohol party and no action has been initiated in the Dasara case, he clarified.
