Government organisations use social media as a way of dispersing information on the internet. However, some organisations take it up a notch with high engagement with their audience that results in remarkable accountability. Mumbai Police is one such organisation that does this.

So, if you don't follow Mumbai Police on Twitter, you're living under a rock. Mumbai Police's Twitter account, apart from being extremely responsive to people's complaints, is also filled with relevant but hilarious memes. In fact, through these memes, sometimes they try to spread awareness about social situations.

Sometimes, these pop culture references in their memes are so funny that they end up going viral on the internet. Here are some of the recent memes that were relevant in 2020 amid the coronavirus crisis.

1. When the districts were divided into red, orange, green zones amid the lockdown. Here's why you should follow the mandates according to Mumbai Police.
