A constable was Monday suspended after a video of him showering currency notes on schoolgirls performing at a Republic Day function in Nagpur in Maharashtra went viral on social media.

A senior Nagpur (rural) police official said constable Pramod Walke had been suspended for indiscipline for his note-showering act which took place at a Republic Day cultural programme in a zila parishad school in Nand village in the district's Bhivapur taluka.

"Nagpur Rural police Superintendent of Police Rakesh Ola has suspended constable Pramod Walke and has initiated a departmental inquiry," the official said.
