No whistles in Gujarat.

So far two IPS officers had to face the heat only because they spoke to nanawati commission on post-godhra riots. Chidambaram says central govt might intervene in this issue, but i dont think he is sure about it.

In the context of lokpal bill , anti-corruption etc etc this raises a serious question of protection of whistle blowers.  If a police officer is chargesheeted because he supplied evidences to the SIT and nanawathi commission , which are against Modi, based on a technicality which says he should not have done that because its sensitive information and he must be punished because he didnt take the permission of gujarat govt before supplying them? Then think about an ordinary citizen or some employee in govt who tries to blow the whistle against corruption in his department.

We have seen a lot of movies , where a goon murders somebody in open, and nobody files a case against him and nobody cooperates with the police officer who is enthusiastic to push the goon behind the bars. Then we would listen to the speech of police officer targeting the fear in public to come out and the flaws in the system.

Its almost the same scene now we are watching in reality, if a police officer is punishable because he talked to nanawati commission ( Please not that, the punishment is not because he lied or tampered the evidence), then what about the ordinary citizen , whose family is murdered in the riots and seeking justice.

మందలో ఒకరిలా కాకుండా సొంతంగా ఆలోచిస్తున్నందుకు అభినందనలు. ఈ పోస్ట్ గురించి చర్చ జరగకపోవడంలో పెద్దగా ఆశ్చర్యపోవలసిందేం లేదు. కల్ల ముందు జరుగుతున్న గుజరాత్ గురించి కాకుండా, వెయ్యేల్ల క్రితం ఘజనీ మహ్మదు దండయాత్రల గురించి రాసిఉంటే, మన జనాలు రెచ్చిపోయి రెస్పాండ్ అయ్యేవారు.

అట్లే అవినీతి ఉద్యమం గురించి కూడా చాలా చక్కగా, ఆలోచనాత్మకంగా రాస్తున్నారు. కొనసాగించగలరని మనవి.
