Men In Khaki Deserve Severe Punishment


Recommended Posts

Rape and worse

Ludhiana cops show utter callousness

IMAGINE the shock and trauma of a widow returning by a night bus from a pilgrimage to Vaishno Devi with her minor son who had to fight off the owner of the bus trying to outrage her modesty in the running vehicle near Ludhiana. Nothing could have been more shocking. She would have been beholden to the policemen who heeded her shouts and chased the bus along with several other public-spirited citizens and journalists of the city and frustrated the bus owner’s devilish designs. But what happened later was no less horrifying. The policemen entered into a turf war and made the bruised woman with torn clothes suffering from trauma, shuttle between different police stations over jurisdiction issues to handle the case. All this happened despite the senior police officers’ repeated claims that strict instructions had been issued to all concerned to register a report without quibbling about jurisdiction considerations.

It is most unfortunate that the policemen routinely display insensitivity bordering on callousness even in such heinous crimes. Call it their societal prejudices or lack of training, but lower constabulary does not attach as much gravity to such outrage as it should. We cannot forget that Manipuri women had to parade naked through public streets in Imphal to shame the government into taking action against alleged rapists. In that the case, the suspects were from the security forces. Even otherwise, the men in khaki tend to be unconcerned about the trauma undergone by a rape victim.

But then, some of them are so bad that they can turn into rapists themselves. This has happened in Mumbai and recently also in Ludhiana where some of them raped a 16-year-old girl in a park after holding her boyfriend hostage. Such horrifying incidents shake the confidence of the public and make them suspect even those who are supposedly friends of the public. That is why it is necessary to weed the rotten elements out of the police without delay. Unfortunately, the police force continues to be protective about the colleagues “in trouble” and they get away with gentle raps on the knuckles. It is high time the trend changed and severe punishment was given to those no longer of help to people.

isn't it funny how when punjab police tortured and raped sikhs during the movement, the cops were hailed as heroes and any talk about punishing guilty police officers would lead to being killed, like shaheed sardar jaswant singh khalra ji.

now when these things are happening to other people, all of a sudden, the men in khaki deserve "severe punishment"

i salute the brave singhs who gave "severe punishment" to such men in khaki, and that is why we call them our shaheeds.

jago.

peace.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
