The Brutal Indian Police


I had been reading and watching about all the injustice done by the india.But believe me,it’s a going to take a lot of courage to be in the receiving part of it. The issue had caught my attention 1st when the police hit out against the medical students for Opposing the the reservation.(I would not express my opinions in that matter b’cos it might create a lot of controversy). But still the violence against the students was untolerable and the people who were responsible for that are still walking freely even today. The so called government did not take an satisfactory action against them. Later many such instances caught my attention where the Police showed off their power against women and old aged people. After I saw these instances my belief on th Indian Police vanished. India is supposed to be a democratic country and all kind of silent protests are LEGAL. I decided today that I should blog about these Legal Goondas when I read an article in paper that in UP, a policeman had hit a 9yr old girl,accusing of her to be a theif and causing bruises all over he body,just because he thought that girl was a theif.Even if she had done it,should she have been given such a brutal punishement.Had it not been for the media the constable would not have even be suspended.The old saying about Democracy
“By The People, Of The People and For The People” is long gone in India.It now is only by the People and Of the People(Constituting mostly of the corrupt and selfish Politicians).As I said it takes a lot of courage to be at the receiving end of it(Although in my case it was not that serious).
This incident took place in the beginning of this year when our vacations had just started. We(Me,Bhargav,Vidya Shankar and Abhishek Shambu) had been to to the college to register our names for the Soft Skill Development Training in the College.Later we had been to the Churmuri shop near Ballal Circle in my town. There were already a few people there, all sitting on their vehicles and chit chatting(They were looking like the upcoming rogues). We not bothered by all these and just ordered our item in the shop and were sitting away from them. After sometime they all left and we too were leaving when arrived some 6 Policeman two in bikes and the rest in the jeep. They came and started scolding us with all sorts of slang language in Kannada just we had come in the bikes. They started accusing us as the Loafers who roam around all the time and pass vulgar comments on the girls passing by. They were at all ready to listen us, But I had to tell them that we were not what they had thought. I told that they were mistaken, I said that we were students and had holidays now and had come here to eat. At this the police hit out at me and would have hit me had we not zoomed of on our bikes. It was pretty clear that the people that had stood before we came had done such sort of things and someone had complained against it(which was not wrong). Even my friends adviced me of not to talk to the police like that,But I cannot stand such injustice.
One thing was clear that the Indian police(or atleast the Karnataka Police) that any youngsters who come with a bike to such place are all loafers.They don’t even have the common sense to enquire about such things.I could not even bare the wordly abuse by them,think about the people who had to tolerate the physical abuse. Will desency be not thought to the policemen during their training periods???? If not then they are just giving training and license for a person to become a Legal Rowdy. Will this ever end in India?? As of now I don’t think so.

What Has Happened To Me????


At last i am back to blogging. Although i had felt in the past 3 months that i should resume blogging,due to some or the other reasons i had postponed it. Today i made up my mind and have resumed it.Although the delay of blogging up to January 1st is justifiable b'cos of my exams i have no particular reason for not blogging after that.In fact i used to spend most of my time in front of my comp either playing FIFA 07 or watching the movies.
I have spent  a lot of time this vacation browsing online without any goal,thanks to Stumble toolbar on my firefox which take me to the website that might be of my interest. Although sleeping was my favorite past time in vacations until last semester,these vacations were a lot different i never found satisfaction in sleeping, in fact i would sleep only upto 7 in the morning and whenever there was no power in my house(else i would be in front of my computer). I used to spent a lot of time in the evenings with my friends,something was still going on in my mind and i was still unsatisfied. I had been to my native place for about 8days,still something was lacking in this passing of this vacations.

I had made a lot of resolutions for this new year which i have not followed till now.( I keep making resolutions every year but fail to keep up with it).My travelling continued and i visited my Music teacher,now in Bangalore( I rarely used to go to their classes ) in my childhood days,i should rather say she was a family friend rather than a teacher.Somehow i felt that the 4 days spent with thier family was the best days in my vacation times(even though we rarely went out of the house there).I don't know what had happened to me the past month, i spent almost all of my vacations without a purpose when most of my classmates were busy preparing for Campus Recruitments. Now i feel the start of this month has brought a new purpose in me,and has made my thinking clearer. The best example being my resuming of blogging. I have a lot of things to do this semester but nothing would stop me blogging regularly from now on..

I am thinking about writing posts on a variety of things that have happened during my absence in my blog,
hope i do so.
