In a bizarre turn of events, some “heartless” miscreants stole the heart located in Karol Bagh which is in the national capital, fondly known as Dilwali Dilli. The irony of the incident was not lost on netizens who took to Twitter to amplify the incident and laugh about the same.

The peak “Chura ke dil mera, goriya chali” moment was reported from Rajendra Place roundabout. At the roundabout an “I love Delhi” selfie point was installed just a month ago. However, within the month, some miscreants sold the ‘heart’ that was in the middle of the “I” and Delhi”.

It should be noted that the random and bizarre incident may have been inspired by a similar incident that transpired earlier last month in Kupwara, a town in Jammu and Kashmir. In Kupwara, some miscreants ended up damaging a similar signage, and stole the heart from the signage as well. Shockingly enough, the incident happened only 21 days within the “I Love Kupwara” signage was installed.

The strange and bizarre robbery is in line of similar baffling incidents of thefts reported recently. In April, 2022, some thieves posed as officers of Irrigation Department and stole an entire 60 ft, 500 tonne bridge in Bihar.
