New Delhi (Sputnik): A police constable in the southern Indian state of Karnataka has become a major draw on social media for converting his fibre-made baton into a flute that he loves to play during idle time.
The policeman drilled eight holes into his three-foot long baton given to him for policing and turned it into a musical instrument. Chandrakant Hutgi works as head constable in the Hubli Rural Police Station.
