People inside the vehicle, reportedly dressed in saffron clothes, tried to call the girl over. They allegedly told her they wanted to give her a “blessing”.

The girl reportedly felt something was not right and acted quickly. She ran inside her house and informed her family.

When her family members came out to check, the men in the car immediately drove away from the spot.

The entire incident was captured on a nearby CCTV camera, and the clip has since gone viral.

After the video spread, many people began claiming that a gang was trying to trap children by pretending to offer blessings or ask for help.

These claims have increased fear among parents and residents in the area.

Police in Bengaluru have taken note of the viral video and started a basic inquiry.

Officials said that no formal complaint has been filed so far. They are checking the footage and looking at other CCTV recordings from nearby areas.

Police have also asked the public not to panic. They advised residents to stay alert and report any suspicious activity to the police control room immediately.

Not everything you see on social media is true. Sometimes, people share old videos or clips taken out of context, claiming they show kidnapping gangs.

The police have asked everyone not to get scared until they release official information. Still, it's always a good idea for school kids and girls to be careful when talking to strangers or when they are out alone.
