I am a firm believer that If Police wants then none can even dare to think about stealing a young boy’s toy on the Road. Whenever I have been to places outside Delhi, People tend to ask me if it’s Safe to be in Delhi and I find myself sitting at the edge of the knife because I am going to defend something I have not seen in recent times. Hence today, in my blog I would accept that yes if we rate Delhi Police it tops the chart of worst along with the lights of U.P, Bihar and Jharkhand. And yes we are talking about the State which will hold Commonwealth next year and most importantly is The Capital of India. The Police Commissioner Proudly says that last year they have reduced amount of RAPES, MURDERS, ROBBERY AND OTHER CRIMES, but he again & again forgets that these cases are those in which Police was made to forcefully lodge the FIR. There are uncountable cases where Police rather throw and kick the victim out of the Chowkis. The Police have only become the biggest “Gunda” of this country, from Hafta Wasooli to Threatening people; they have left no stone of difference unturned.
Recently I came across a facts that young SCHOOL Boys and even Girls who are studying in so called Reputed English Medium Schools are busy snatching mobiles, bags etc on their unlicensed Bikes. The reason is they have lost all fear of the Law and its Protectors. There is an incident where I was going to the IGI Airport, on the way from CP to IGI, I could see Policemen at every 10 feet while returning I saw but obvious our PM going for his Russian Tour and as he passed each checkpoints, to my surprise I could see all those attentive Policemen suddenly roaming, talking and smoking in groups, again the whole traffic getting confused because all the three Signal Lights are “on” hence no one knows whose turn is it to cross. If this country realizes that the Police is made to protect the PEOPLE and not just the PM (who is in turn made by the People), we can beat the European Nations the very Next Day. Making the situation worst is our Constitution , we are still following that 200 years old UK law which they themselves have completely changed a century back but our makers are still Sleeping or were sleeping when they made it. The CRPC and The IPC completely need a makeover so that The Police is forced by the law to hear all the Victims and not the victimizer. I remember a time when these Policemen lathi charged HUNGRY AND PEACEFUL Protesting Intern Young Doctors (at the Reservation times) on the orders from their Legal Fathers. It was unfortunate that at that time there was not a single strong Student Leader who could make the Police bear the same pain which they were giving to innocent students. The Police can only control those who are defenseless while people like KASAB kick them up and down like anything.
There are two kinds of Justice in our country, the one who knows the law and the other who knows the Law Minister. In Delhi just the Police is not completely at fault. When they try to perform their Duties honestly the first person they catch is either “A Bureaucrat’s son or A MLA’s Son or A MP’s son or nevertheless have some contacts with various Policemen across Delhi” and he is our “legal Dammad” so there is no law written for him. Not only Police even the Judiciary has got many blood stains on their black Suits. Which are highlighted again and again by Media which I seem is the only strong Pillar of this Democracy and is somewhat less rusted by money. Not only the Police needs a makeover, the whole Judicial system needs to look an alternate Heading to deal with the situation. If the Law of the Land is Strong I cannot imagine that any criminal in this country can dare to laugh after being convicted.
I remember a lady called “Kiran Bedi” who completely changed the situation of TIHAR JAIL and now the prisoners that come out are human beings and not criminals or animals. She was the leading contender for the C.P of Delhi but again I guess my second Law of Justice made her to step down and take early retirement. I would at the end like to quote her sentence here “There is LAW and there is RULE but in India there is No RULE OF LAW”.
