In a situation where police is fast losing its sheen and grandeur due to misdeeds of black-sheep, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh has visualised ideal settings by stressing the need for making police stations as “temples of justice” as he advised police personnel to develop a sense of social responsibility to serve the public. This ideal will, however, materialise only when a helpless, harassed and suffering victim of injustice or crime is heard in a police station, he says.
Is it a matter of pride or shame for leaders to ignore the ground realities wherein the suffered people are further harassed in police stations by not even registering their complaints lest lending shoulders to lay their heads on?
