The video has also been receiving very interesting comments. Some commented that the monkeys are helping the common man in the fight for justice. "Milord, I wanted to submit my affidavit but it's missing ....along with my lunch," was another interesting comment. The monkey menace has happened in the Supreme Court days after the Delhi High Court ordered the authorities to take effective action against the monkey problem.
