The biker Alluri Sitharamaraju, who was riding a bullet bike, was asked to show its papers. When the rider failed to present them, the cops used the MParivahan application to check the details of who owned the two-wheeler. The app showed that the bike had been stolen and the owner had filed a complaint in 2019. The vehicle was seized by the police and the owner was informed right away.
