In a unique and heartwarming incident, a 55-year-old father in Kakinada approached the local traffic police with an unusual request: to assess the character of his prospective son-in-law by checking if he had any pending traffic challans. The man, who had lost his wife years ago and raised his daughter single-handedly, wanted to ensure that his future son-in-law was a disciplined and law-abiding citizen.
Father's Innovative Approach
The father visited the Bhanugudi junction in Kakinada and spoke to the traffic inspector on duty, Daneti Rama Rao. He provided the vehicle numbers of his daughter's would-be groom's car and bike, asking the police to check for any violations, including drunk driving, not wearing a seat belt or helmet, or any other traffic infractions.
Police Cooperation
Amused by the father's caring nature, Inspector Rama Rao immediately coordinated with the traffic control room to verify the records. The checks revealed that no challan had been registered against the prospective groom's vehicles, and he had no history of traffic violations. The father was relieved to receive a clean chit, confirming that his future son-in-law was a responsible individual.
Father's Background

The man had lost his wife several years ago and raised his daughter with immense love and care, despite facing numerous hardships. He ensured that his daughter received a quality education, culminating in her completing a BTech degree. The father's primary concern was that his son-in-law would provide the same level of love, care, and discipline to his daughter after marriage.
Conclusion
