The police must be non partisan to dispense justice as per the law be you so high or low! They have to be able to stand up and do their sacred sworn duty against communal lawless gangs and against those under state patronage! The police in Delhi have cancelled a scheduled stand up comedy show on threat from the VHP which is unfair on three counts. The show is condemned without knowing the contents and the artiste and eager audience deprived enjoyment, comedian of his job and the police scared of doing theirs to maintain law and order! In Goa the unfortunate death of Sonali Phogat, the police initially suspected no foul play and only on the vehement protest and naming of suspects by her family, the culprits were arrested and confession obtained. The IGP has since done a commendable job and it seems to be leading to deeper ramifications. They have to be able to increasingly protect the public with a prevention better than cure attitude and have the spine to render equitable justice to all, so the public can go to them confidently and both can help each other to better enforce law and order!
