Drawing inspiration from TV quiz show 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' (KBC) hosted by Bollywood veteran Amitabh Bachchan, the Rajasthan Police has launched its own version of 'KBC' on social media to raise awareness about the law and crimes.

In first-of-its-kind exercise, the state police has started 'Kitna Bada Crime' (KBC) quiz, wherein they have been posting one question everyday since September 24 on crimes and IPC sections dealing with them.

The purpose is to use social media platforms to educate and inform people about laws related with crime in an entertaining manner, Rajasthan DGP O.P Galhotra said.

"It is a novel initiative taken by the Rajasthan Police. None of other states has done something similar," he told PTI.

The first question posted on Twitter by the state police's handle @PoliceRajasthan was: "Under which IPC section, demanding sexual favours despite indication of disinterest is a crime?"
