Last Saturday, I have gone to an insurance office to surrender my policy. There a gentle man was discussing about some pension plan. Since he is going to retire soon, he wanted to do some pension plan to bear his expenses after retirement. He was just talking about his requirement – “I’m working as a Govt. employee. Since my retirement time is coming, my salary will be reduced to almost half. But expenditure will not reduce. Blah blah!!”. Then the insurance manager asked him about his job. He told that, he was working in income tax office. Than the insurance manager laughed & told him, “then no need to explain you about how to save your money from tax.” Then he told that, “I’m working in income tax department. That doesn’t mean that you said. People always think like this. That’s why I often tell about my profession to others.”

People have always this type of perception. If anyone is working in police department, that means, he has enough money (black money!). He has no problem in life. As my father is a police officer, I know about their problems.

• They don’t have any holidays throughout the year except their leaves.
• They may have 24 hours duty. They can be called to duty any time. It may be dinner time; it may be at 2 o’clock night.
• People come to home at evening. But they are standing at traffic signal in evening.
• They do their duty on rainy time by bringing umbrella in their hands.
• They are doing their duty in heavily cold & fug.

Who cares about them? People say, police always asking about money. I can categorise them in three types.

• No doubt, most of police men are like this. 
• Some police are asking for money with some situation. I’m not in favour of them, but I’m trying to say something about their situation. 
• There are also some good people in police department who never in favour of corruption in any condition.

The 1st & 3rd types are obvious. I’m talking about the 2nd type.

• Suppose a police officer is working in an outpost. He is supposed to give at least Rs 5000/month to IIC, Rs 15000/quarterly to Circle Inspector, Rs 20000/quarterly to DSP and more than Rs 20000 to SP. To survive in police department, he has to do this. Then should he give them from his own pocket? When he earn (!) this money allegedly, then he did some extra amount for his own pocket.
  
• Family members including wife encourage him to do the same.

Recently there as a gang rape case in New Delhi by 6 people. People protested at India Gate. The act 144 has been implemented on that place. Then tear gas, water & lathi charge implemented by police to control the situation. It is not their fault to implement the act 144. Govt has not taken any action. But police are blamed. More than 70 people injured. (And today I came to know that, one police men died on attack on him by public. But the controversial statements says, the guys who helped the police men to bring to hospital told that, no one attacked on him. He was died in cardiac arrest. Here politician played game with dead body of the police man claiming that, protesters has attacked on him & detained some protesters including some political party workers.) Here also police are blamed without any reason. If any misshapen will occurred with any public, then Govt will suspend 2-3 police men to satisfy the people. Here also police are blamed.

Here you can watch a beautiful video.
