That we are living in the capital of this country which is being shaken by the point-blank range shoot-outs and killings becoming the vogue, little needs to be written about the rectifying script the top-cop of Delhi seems to hold.
The killing of 8 people in 7 days by the gang of guys, now termed as Biker's Gang has shaken the police out of its deep slumber. Delhi as such has never been quite a treat to be discussed even though the police Commissioner sadly enough came out with the statistics which badly point a rosy picture in terms of controlled crime growth. That more than 300% cases refused to be registered as FIR's in the first place by the respective SHO's and the local pulling of strings required to push the matter---- puts the Delhi police in a tight and dubious spot. A recent case where Dr. Tomar was murderously attacked by the known criminals and had 35 stitches done on him saw some pressure from the higher-ups for the case to be registered as FIR and then the sections applied were so very well manipulated as if to believe that the attackers were state-sponsored. The shocking manner in which the police con cotted a story of the attack and then later drew up a compromising plan to avoid a FIR being registered for murder belies the rosy picture that Mr. Dadwal valiantly tried to put-up.
The sharp increase in the over all crime ,,,,,be it chain-snatching right from outside one's house, to cycles and two wheelers being stolen, day-light robberies, murders, sattas being played, rash driving, triple and sometimes stunt-laden bikers, booze openly in the cars after 6 p.m., VIP sirens flashed loudly,,,,,,the list is unending............is all due to active connivance of the police and sharing of the bounty of the loot. The open use of drugs right under its nose lays the foundation of the crime that takes a monstrous proportion in the later days.
Otherwise how does one explain a local channel bursting of the crime, 100 mts away from the police station where police still keeps staring at the stars. The worst part is the local workers of the various political outfits like the BJP, CONGRESS or the BSP who graduate to the don levels in the area and openly threaten with dire consequences if one tries to come in their way. The sale of addictive material outside the gates of the police station and the usual response that people should take care-- are the most disgusting comments heard....in which case the point arises ----what exactly is the role and how well equipped is the police to tackle the situation and if at all the onus has to be on the public ...then where does the viability of the police stand? Agreed police cant reach every nook and corner of the city but how does one explain the constables dutifully making their presence felt even when two dozen bricks are unloaded anywhere in these very lanes, for greasing their palms.
Until and unless the corruption is not checked in its very cadres, the situation in any part of the country will never improve. The guts of the criminals in killing people walking down the road and looting of the shops with police being a mute spectator armed with only the excuses up their sleeves..let it be the shortage of the staff or blaming the people ......will only see a further rise in crime until a strong will-power without an eye on the wards of currency notes is imbibed in the force at all levels.
No amount of rosy paintings by Mr.Dadwal can camouflage the crime nexus of police and criminals until some tough and no-nonsense attitude like KIRAN BEDI's guts and ingeniousness to take strong and affirmative steps ( beyond keeping the babus of the Ministry pleased with posting of constables outside their bungalows ).... are adopted with a fiery speed, until which time Delhi will keep burning while The Nero's of the administration keep dancing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.................
