Ludhiana: A dramatic video circulating widely on social media shows a woman stepping out of a car with a sword and running after two men on a motorcycle in what is being described as an attempted robbery in Dehlon, Ludhiana.
The 1-minute-10-second clip, which surfaced late Friday night, purportedly captures the incident on a relatively deserted stretch of road. According to claims accompanying the video, the woman is a non-resident Indian (NRI) identified as Harjinder Kaur, reportedly based in Australia.

In the footage, two men on a motorcycle are seen near the vehicle after eggs were allegedly thrown at the car’s window. The act is believed to have been an attempt to force the occupants to stop — a tactic sometimes associated with roadside robberies.
An elderly woman seated inside the car can be heard cautioning the driver against stepping out, warning that the road was isolated and urging her to stay inside. Despite the warnings, the woman exits the vehicle holding a sword and moves toward the motorcyclists, shouting at them.
As the motorcycle pauses a short distance away, the woman is seen advancing in their direction, appearing to challenge them. The clip shows the headlights of another vehicle approaching from the opposite side while the confrontation unfolds.
The authenticity of the video and the exact sequence of events have not yet been officially confirmed by police. It remains unclear whether a formal complaint has been filed or if authorities have identified the individuals involved.
The footage has triggered intense reactions online, with many praising the woman’s courage, while others have raised concerns about the risks involved in confronting suspected criminals.
Further details are awaited as officials verify the circumstances surrounding the incident.
