Karnataka Police is taking the phrase "modern problems require modern solutions" to the next level by devising an innovative punishment for tourists who defied a ban on bathing in a waterfall during the monsoon season, and netizens are impressed.

The police removed the clothes of tourists who had entered the gushing Charmadi Falls in Mudigere to take a bath despite caution signs.

The group allegedly disregarded warning signs posted around the waterfall that banned entry into the water during the rainy season.&nbsp;

They left their clothes on the shore and proceeded into the waterfall, climbing rocks in an area marked as off-limits.

Chikmagalur division police officers saw the tourists trying to climb the rocks and took their abandoned clothes and walked away. A video shows those men asking the officers to return their clothes.

After warning the tourists, the Karnataka Police returned the clothing. They also gave them safety instructions before letting them leave. Since July 1, parts of the Southern state has prohibited tourist entry to waterfalls due to increased risk of safety during the rainy season.
