BENGALURU: Joyal Bindu , travelling to Bengaluru from Kollam after the Onam holidays in his Karnataka registered car, was skeptical of the drive through Tamil Nadu, but a simple gesture from TN police gave this Bengalurean the confidence to hit the highway.On his Facebook wall, he posted that while travelling from Kerala to Bengaluru, his car was stopped at the toll gate at Madurai bypass. “A polite lady police constable of Tamil Nadu Police, noticing my Karnataka registered car, advised me to park aside and said I shall be escorted by Police in the wake of recent Cauvery unrest... I parked aside; soon 2 more KA registered cars joined and the motorcade from Madurai started at 10:00am,“ he wrote. Bindu was surprised to see the escorts hand the baton to others. “A relay of at least 7-8 Police Cabs with personnel took over from various check-posts to usher us safely on the highway. From a convoy of four vehicles, we were 16 vehicles by the end of day,“ he wrote. By 9pm, the cars reached Bengaluru.
