An Instagram page called Treasure Hunt Delhi has created an unusual challenge for the city's residents. The page is filled with videos of an individual hiding money at random places across the capital city and challenging people to find it. The page's bio also highlights its purpose, which reads, "Real treasure hunts all over Delhi".
"North Delhi, boating kerne aa jao [Come to North Delhi for boating]," reads a caption to a post shared just six hours ago. In the video, a person is seen holding a ₹500 note. A text insert on the screen reads, "Find the location and take the money".
In the video, the person puts the folded note behind a small wall opening. The clip then goes on to give a quick glimpse of the area.
Later, the Instagram user also shared an update in the comments section - "Someone has claimed the treasure, but we don't know who. So let us know if you have won this hunt".
