TINKLE TOWN: In a time of festivities and good cheer, a burglar has struck, taking advantage of everyone’s lowered guard! 

The burglar’s first order of business was to steal people’s fireworks. “It’s true!” chimes in Ravi, one half of the famous sleuthing duo, the Def—sorry, Daring Detectives. “The burglar stole all our Diwali firecrackers, the ones we bought after months of saving our pocket money.” “That’s not all,” adds Rahul, the other half of this dashing duo. “This burglar also steals people’s hard-earned food.” The boys then recount how their precious snacks—vada pavs, from the popular Mega Queen Vada Pav chain—were also swiped with their stash of fireworks. “We know this notorious criminal is hungry, hungry for food and hungry for a big bang!” they conclude. 

This reporter cautions the denizens of Tinkle Town to keep an eye out for unexpected bangs and booms this festive season. They might be stolen fireworks going off! As for the Diwali burglar, here’s our message to them—you cannot stop the celebrations, try as you might! Tinkle Town is strong and united in standing against your criminal activities.
