YouTuber Gaurav Taneja arrested in Noida for celebrating birthday in Metro Station
YouTuber Gaurav Taneja arrested: Indian YouTuber Gaurav Taneja, also known as "Flying Beast," has millions of followers. People enjoy watching his daily vlogs as they're both relevant and entertaining. Although he rarely hosts "meet and greet" events for his followers, when he does, it's always for a specific purpose.
The popular Youtuber was detained on Saturday in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, after a sizable crowd of his fans gathered there to commemorate his birthday. In light of the increasing COVID-19 incidents, Taneja was initially held for disobeying the prohibitory orders placed in Noida. He was later taken into custody for disobeying a properly stated instruction by a public officer.
Taneja's wife Ritu Rathee, who has more than 1.6 million Instagram followers, announced that she has reserved a whole metro for the celebration and cake cutting. ""We will be restricted by maximum capacity of a Metro given by NMRC. Lekin sabse milege zaroor," she uploaded a photo to Instagram.
Numerous individuals went to the Sector 51 metro station after seeing the open invitation to see their favourite YouTuber. In order to prevent stampedes, Noida Sector 49 Police had to respond quickly to the situation due to the large number of people there.
Taneja was arrested on charges of breaking section 188 and the CrPC's Noida-applicable section 144. (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant). Gaurav Taneja had become hot trend on Twitter shortly after his arrest.
Pilot with Air Asia, Gaurav Taneja, alleged that the airline had suspended him for reporting infractions at the company. He also highlighted the problems he had raised in a video in 2020.
Ritu Rathee Taneja, the wife of pilot Gaurav Taneja, is a social media influencer as well. They got married in 2015 and have two kids.
