what a turn around for a babu

A 1980 batch Maharashtra cadre IPS and Pune’s city commissioner of police Dr Satya Pal Singh, who has been in action since last Saturday’s massive bomb blast near German Bakery of the city, asked the city dwellers to go for arms license if necessary, and told them about their legal rights to chase the criminals up to the extent of killing them, in his blog written in August last year. His comments cannot be brushed aside as his personal observation as his blog is linked to the official website of Pune police.
“Police cannot be present everywhere. Though God is everywhere we cannot expect Him to give us protection if we ourselves are fearful and not alert,” he said in his blog posted on August 20, 2009. He then wrote what should be done for protecting oneself. “In self-defense we may go for an arms license if necessary. All the members of the public must know that they have the legal right to chase the criminals up to the extent of killing them in case of certain body offences and property offences”, Dr Satya Pal Singh wrote in his blog. He also quoted section 100 and 103 dealing with rights of private defence of the body and protection property of the society.
He even uses a couplet to describe why one needs self-protection.
Jamee par apni hifajat khud karo
Khuda to yaro aasmano mei hai
It means, Friends! let us protect ourselves on earth as God lives in only in heavens.
Dr Singh, who is an MSc and M Phil in chemistry, MA and PhD in public administration and also an MBA, also wrote why he chose to give such a prescription for self-protection. “No doctor can keep us healthy if we do not follow the norms and rules of a healthy living,” he said.

Naga,

The cop in discussion was very very strict. I am sorry to state that the man you are praising was the one who denied maximum arm licence applications. During his tenure almost every application was rejected and citizens were left with no option but to appeal to the State Home Department or in other words the only way to get arm licence during his tenure was by the way of appeal to State Home Department.

:cheers:

The cop in discussion was very very strict.
In my opinion describing him as "strict" is incorrect. By the use of word "strict" are we not indirectly providing respect and legitimacy to his abusive misuse of powers done by him? Probably some incident happened with him that caused a revelation, opened his eyes to the reality and had change of heart when writing in his blog.
