Bhubaneswar: A group of youngsters were spotted Wednesday night by the Twin City Police Commissioner Saumendra Priyadarshi while celebrating birthday party at Delta Square in Bhubaneswar.

Acting on instructions of the Police Commissioner and after getting information about the incident, Khandagiri police immediately reached the spot. The youths fled from the spot leaving apart their vehicles on the road when they saw the police team, an official source said.
