Watch | Armed robber loots ₹80 lakh at gunpoint in Chandni Chowk, netizens say, ‘Welcome to ‘new’ Delhi’


An Angadiya trader was robbed of 80 lakh at gunpoint in Chandni Chowk. The robber fired shots and fled with the money, reported ANI, citing Delhi Police.

Currently,  Delhi Police is investigating the case.

CCTV footage from the incident emerged online where the man was seen walking on the streets when the robber grabbed his bag and fired shots while running away.

Social media users react

Social media users have reacted to the clip that emerged online, stating concerns about carrying a huge sum in a bag.

One of the users commented, 80 lakhs aise kon bag mein leke ghumta hai (Who carries 80 lakhs in a bag).

“In America, they are scared to expose their phones, lest they get mugged. It shows the confidence Indians have to walk around casually with 80 lakhs in a back pack. Lets not be too harsh on ourselves, India is the best place to live, work, thrive, or simply chill,” added another.

“Welcome to “new” Delhi,” another user said.

80 lakh without any security precaution is an act of bravery (sic),” one of the users said.
