One social media user demanding action against the Tihar Jail jailer said, "If an ordinary person were seen dancing while brandishing a pistol in a video, the police and media would quickly arrest and imprison them. However, this is the jailer of Delhi's Tihar Jail, Deepak Sharma, who is seen waving his own service pistol. Will any action be taken in this case?"
According to a report by The Times of India, Sharma was summoned to the Seemapuri police station, where his revolver was seized. A senior police officer informed the newspaper that although no shots were fired, brandishing the weapon violated the law and posed a safety risk to the public. The DCP (Shahdara) has written to the DCP Licensing, requesting the revocation of Sharma's revolver license.
