 EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Mar 11: A DySP rank J&K Police officer made a cop, his PSO, to tie shoelaces at Peer Baba Satwari on Thursday afternoon.
A video and some photographs captured today by social activists are taking round on Social Media.
“In the video, the arrogant officer, who had been to Peer Baba to pay his obeisance, after coming from the Dargah, was caught on wrong foot, as his PSO, seen tying his shoelaces in video that too just outside the Dargah, where he bowed his head”, said another visitor of the Dargah who captured the video.
Although it has become common for politicians to get this (menial) service done through their followers, and higher authorities in the Police department getting it done through employees in the lower rungs indoor, this incident has given rise to bitter criticism of the Police officer, on social media.
Though there were hundreds of people who noticed the incident, no one dared to question the Police officer’s act or capture the video or photographs, but I secretly recorded the incident.
“The scene was posted on the internet.
People came out strongly against this action, and lack of respect shown by the officer towards people serving in the Police. Many poured out their resentment at this act through social media”, said the man who captured this video.
The Police department however, is yet to give its response over this issue. |
