A Mahindra Thar owner from Gurugram has issued a legal notice to Haryana's Director General of Police, O P Singh, demanding a retraction and apology for comments allegedly suggesting that Thar and Bullet motorcycle owners possess a 'criminal mindset.'

During a recent press conference on road safety in Gurugram, the DGP reportedly made the contentious statements, sparking an online uproar. Vehicle owners and enthusiasts denounced the remarks, calling them a broad generalization.

The legal notice, sent by Sarvo Miter through his lawyer, criticizes the DGP's remarks as unfounded and damaging to the reputation of Thar owners. It warns of legal action if a retraction isn't made within 15 days. Attempts to contact the DGP for comment were unsuccessful.
