Hail Transfer Industry in J&K Police– II

Date:

S.K. Bhalla

At Civil Vigilance Cell (CVC) it was unanimously decided to devote as few days from June 27, 2017 to J&K Police exclusively writing inside stories that at times curdle one's blood and leave one aghast about their modus operandi. Today's write-up is sequel to yesterday's piece that was well taken in general as per telephonic feedback. We must allow scope for some criticism also though unhealthy. Humans shall always remain humans.

Anyhow in supersession of all previous orders Police Establishment Board (PEB) has been constituted by Dr. S. P. Vaid the incumbent DGP in the month of April, 2017 with immediate effect. During Ashok Prasad's time he was not heading the PEB but now this body comprises 10 folk instead of 09 of the previous order. Mr. Vaid is in full control of PEB a

nd the relevant order reads “The Board shall decide all transfers, postings, promotions and other service related matters of Police Personnel including SDRF of and below the rank of Dy. Superintendent of Police. The Board will also function as a forum of appeal of various representations from Officers of and above the rank of Superintendent of Police regarding their promotions, transfer and disciplinary proceedings”. The concentration of all powers in the hands of DGP is a serious poser.

There are reports of undue promotions, whimsical transfers and putting under the carpet some thorny matters under the carpet in tune with J&K's administrative . A few matters will be highlighted this week only. Why not call a spade a spade?

Whatsoever lame duck media in general we have in J&K, it has failed to project the police related matters impartially. Dandae Se Darr Lagta Hai. No slant is required as it shall do more harm than good to already ailing society groping for direction.

Civil Vigilance Cell among other steps that are to be stressed upon for streamlining Police department would ensure that any citizen who succeeds in getting registered an FIR at a Police station within 24-hour on his genuine complaint is given a token prize of Rs. 500/- and his/her name shall also be published free of cost so that others also take a cue. Hum Service Charges Nahi Latae.

Hail Transfer Industry in J&K Police– I

Police and public will have to work in tandem but in majority of cases the opposite is happening. Getting lodged an FIR is a cumbersome exercise and for getting a certified copy again in many cases greasing of palm is the fashion. Please deny forthwith.

At times people are forced to record their statement as per the terms of Station House Officer (SHO) who considers himself as the demigod of the locality. People friendly image of a cop is missing. On the contrary a dangerous image of Police has emerged in our society and both people and Police working in diametrically opposite directions. Let the police refurbish its image.

Of late the manhandling of a teacher at the behest of MLA Ramnagar by men in khakhi at Basantgarh was reported. Perhaps the teacher shall have to approach Hon'ble High Court to take on the MLA in question though R. S. Pathania has dubbed the whole episode an attempt to malign him by his adversaries. Examine all of them and let rule of law prevail. DGP is expected to issue an advisory to his subordinates to desist from inhumanely acts, if any. Abhi Bahut Kuch Baaki Hai.
