Two women, including a teacher, were arrested for allegedly creating a ruckus at Ponda police station in an inebriated condition, police said on Saturday.
The police on Friday arrested Nikita Sukur Valadaris (23), a teacher, and Ashnavi Jaydev Kandolkar for assaulting government servants on duty, a police spokesman said.
The incident occurred at Marcel village, when the accused fell off their scooter, which they were riding in an inebriated state, he said.
"The women were helped by an elderly man, who advised them to take care, following which they entered into an argument with him," he said.
When a passerby alerted the police, the duo was taken to Ponda police station where they allegedly continued hurling abuses and pushing the on-duty policemen, the spokesman said.
The women were arrested under sections 504 (intentional insult), 353 (assault on public servant) and other relevant provisions of the Indian Penal Code, he added.
A medical examination confirmed that the duo was drunk at the time of the incident, the official said.
