Of heroes and heroinesBy: GB | 02-Feb-2009Reply | ForwardArticle gives an impression that the authro wants to say that police is not supposed to arrest an drug peddler who may happen to be an IPS as if IPS are above the law of this land and the courage of the police officers who arrested this fellow need admiration. Well this speaks of the mindset of today's civil services who have shameleslly indulged into the game of protecting their flock in the name of service loyality and IPS is no exception to that. All we know is that for every one act which is uncovered by someone with a rightful approach there are hundereds which are buried under the files of sectariats. I would like to ask the author can he provide us with statisics indicating the nuber of IPS officers terminated from services for non-perforamnce or for corruption in the last ten years. It has somehow become a trend with the services that good deeds of some individual officers are highlighted to hide the collective failure of the system and projecting a good image for all.

Yatha Raja Thatha PrajaBy: KVSKumar | 31-Jan-2009Reply | ForwardI appreciate the confidence of the writer in saying that there is a ray of hope. But I honestly doubt that even this ray of hope will be switched off once the trail leads to big politicians. AS it is even our civil service personnels are heterogenous amongst themselves - IAS, IRS, IPS, ICS , etc. iindividually feels that they are superior to the other. They together do nothing to save upright officers from political pressures and unjust punishments for not heeding corrput politicians. What happened to the Stamp scam (Can anyone believe that Telgi was all alone in his business?), What happened to the recent shameful drama of Money for vote enacted in our parliament - where has gone all those wads of 1000 bucks? What happened to Fodder? There are still many - but no space. How many MLAs/MPs/Ministers in our country have not made crores out of their few lakhs in a span of 5 years in the last 25 years? Have any civil servant touched or look them suspiciously. God save our country.
No Surprises!By: premkumar | 31-Jan-2009Reply | ForwardWhen everyone else is doing small scale this man went in for big scale. That is the only difference. May be he had no connection with some politicians and thus he is caught. otherwise this should've never come out. He is eligible for Padmashree.
saji mohanBy: Sanjay | 31-Jan-2009Reply | ForwardThis article is a ray of hope for people who are completely disillusioned with the care takesr of this country , IPS officers commanded an awe for their uprightness and impartiality but the arrest and unforeseen conviction of Saji Mohan is just the tipf Ice Berg , he is a small fry in this racket unless and until his bosses are also serached and screened just by saying that he is the last black sheep in the total comarderie will be a myopic statement.Whatever the write says the IPS gentry is completely rooted in corruption and has reached to irreparable condition and a complete overhaul and cleansing is necessary because may be the writer is not involved but surely his batch mates and colleagues are having a field day elsewhere, arrest of saji mohan does not absolve the force of the crime against humanit commited earlier and being committed currently in different parts of our country no 90% iof civil officers are in services for money and not because of love for duty
