Encounters with Police I mean Indian Police

Earlier I wrote a Post on Indian Police with the Title Real Beggars of India.But Sometimes they comes so hard at you that you have no choice but to give them some money and make them leave your way

I had many encounters with Police and most of the time I was on the right side but still they were coming so hard at me.But as I was on the right side I did stand them and at last I ended up paying nothing to them.This post is about two incident that I faced back in my Engineering Days and co-incidentally both took place at the Railway Station .

Things I learned–

1. Know the rules and regulations of the state or place you are visiting.
2. If you are right never hesitate to fight.
3. No matter how hard it is never end up paying Money.
4. Always remember any Government Officials are Public Servants.

Though I am posting the incident as Cartoon I hope it is able to convey the situation I faced… 🙂

1.Me and My Girlfriend at Guwahati Railway Station:-We were there to book my return ticket from Guwahati to Bangalore and a RPF(Railway Protection Force) Constable thought they we were fleeing,there was a heated argument of about 15 minutes.And it all came to an end after the intervention of a Lady Constable:-

Police Encounter 1

2.Me at Rangia Railway Station:-I faced a Assam Police Officer in this station asking for PRC(Permanent Residence Certificate). Even in this situation also I had an argument and He also threatened me of not allowing to continue my travel.

Real Beggars of India

Any Guess on my post topic?

The other day I was at a Roadside vendor to have some food and what I saw was the Real Beggar of India,even earlier I have seen such beggars but it was that day the idea to call them “The Real Indian Beggar” crossed my mind and I thought to pen it down.

Remember never mistaken them to mix with other normal beggars,they have their own dignity,own self-respect and most importantly they don’t come to us for begging instead we approach them to offer and moreover they are spread all over India,all this character make them to top the beggar list in India.

Ok enough of introduction,so now let’s break up the suspense.The famous beggar I am talking about is none other than ‘The Men in Khaki’ as we all know them the ‘Indian Police’ including the ‘Indian Traffic Police’.

We have many a time heard about Police involved in different notorious activities and we Indians are used to that also the begging part is not new to them but the creative way they come up with in begging is always new,I think they are always looking for new ideas to beg,let me explain,what I saw the other day standing near that vendor,a Police Patrol Van generally known as ‘Hoysala’ in Bangalore came and stood right in-front of the vendor,the owner approach and handed over some money to them. When he returned I asked him how much he paid and he said only Rs.10.At that moment I thought how cheap of these Police and out of curiosity I asked the owner why he paid them,then he said if they pay these guys they will provide security I mean what the hell,providing security is Police Duty and government pay them for that but then also they do such kind of cheap act but according to the Vendor owner point of view its a profitable deal for them at least at Rs.10 they are getting security but to what extent only God knows 😕 .Even when taking money they would act in such a way that they are performing their duty and only close watch would be able to track them.Damn,Indian Police aka Good Government Actor. 😛

Even such kinds of act is also visible in Traffic Police Dept.When I was in Guwahati,Assam I used to see Traffic Police taking money from Truck and other Public vehicles without any reason.They used to put up their stick to the Drivers window,the driver will roll the rupee note and put it in a hole at the bottom of the stick and this hole is created by the Traffic Personnel intentionally for this purpose,look at their innovation and creative mind.

Really Impressive and Creative Indian Police I must say 😮 .

So,that’s all for now and what do you guys think on Indian Police,do they qualify to be in top of Indian Beggar List?To me they will always top the list 😉
