WHO WILL INVESTIGATE POLICE BRUTALITIES ?

National Crime Records Bureau – NCRB – of India, published following findings of complaints against police , during 2006 to 2010 ( as reported in Times of India / June 27, 2011 ) ( State-wise ):

Ø            Madhya Pradesh  …………….  93,710

Ø            Uttar Pradesh  …………………  34,364

Ø            Delhi  ……………………………..   29,165

Ø            Punjab  ……………………………   23,090

Ø            Maharashtra  …………………..  21,000

Who will investigate these complaints ?

India’s State Police forces claim to be understaffed to investigate even complaints against others !

Here is why :

  

Ø            Madhya Pradesh  …12.16 police/10.000 population

Ø            Uttar Pradesh ……10.68        “

Ø            Delhi  …………………42.40        “

Ø            Punjab  ………………30.76        “

Ø            Maharashtra  ……17.93        “

Fair enough. You have a perfect excuse !
