Panchkula: In India, the emergency number ‘112’ is a single emergency helpline number for various services such as police, fire, and ambulance, etc. However, a large proportion of the calls made to 112 are misdials, prank calls or other forms of abuse or misuse. One such incident has surfaced in Haryana’s Panchkula wherein a man dialed the police emergency number 112 at midnight for a rather weird reason. Notably, the man who was in inebriated state called 112 just to check whether the cops come or not.Also Read – Viral Video: Thief Asks Shopkeeper For Donation, Does This Hilarious Thing When He Denies.

According to Times of India, 42-year-old Naresh Kumar, a daily wager by profession, called the police control room at around 12am on Friday and asked for help. Within 15 minutes, the police actually arrived at the spot and located the man. When the cops asked him the reason for the emergency call, he said that he missed the evening bus from Morni, so he decided to walk towards home. On his way, he consumed beer and dialed the 112 number to check whether police would come at this late hour.
