Friends,
I have written about something like this in my blog, may the force be with you.
I knew a black cat commando who was going out with a friend of mine. He was tough, raw energy. I look into the empty half dead eyes of todays Black Cats who are standing with sten guns behind ministers who conduct their nasty business in front of their eyes. They see the meaninglessness of it all and no wonder they are disillusioned.
Can you blame a Police station inspector who is called out of a murder investigation in a five star hotel to welcome a minister who is coming to his area ? And what happens when he refuses since a five star hotel is of international importance since it concerns tourists. He gets transfered to Naxalite areas.....do you really see any zeal coming from him or his colleagues ?
I don't blame them when there are stories on how they have to pay for their own chaiwalla or stationery in Mumbai. Where do we really think they will pay from ? In the villages there are reports of jeeps breaking down for months and cops travelling on cycles, or working jeeps but no money for petrol / diesel. I have repeatedly told people don't bother with the fancy stuff like bulletproof jackets etc.like the way everyone was talking about after 26/11.
If you want to really help the police, make mohalla committees and go to your local police station, whatever they need buy it and give it to them......paper, staplers, rulers, erasers,diesel.....What will it cost ? Maybe a few thousand a month.....Make sure you do it week after week, month after month and if Mumbai doesnt become a better city after that...I will eat my hat.
Best Wishes
Indipatriot
