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.
