Delhi Traffic Police: Delivering via Social Media!

While Delhi police dont have good reputation in handling the grievances of citizens, the IT division is doing excellent  job via Social Media, Phone Calls and SMS.
    Recently, one rouge policemen charged and ceased my vehicle inappropriately, even though there was offense from my side. It caused me lots of inconvenience, I had to run around police stations for one week. While my complain against this act is still under process, I came to know about the Delhi Traffic Police's facebook page. I started following the posts and actions.
   I was surprised to see the attentiveness and grievances disposal mechanism was being delivered via facebook seamlessly. On this page, the aware citizen can post about offensive or inappropriate acts of vehicle owners, or about some abusive policemen, or any query about the document, all matters are being addressed promptly. The blow is screenshot from the facebook page of Delhi police posted few hours ago:

 
I must congratulate to the concern personnel and Delhi Traffic Police for using social media to approach citizens. This example is best role model for other police departments, at least the in four main metros. I wish to see the end of red-tap-ism and the rule of gundagardi from Indian police by enabling IT, Social media and People's participation.

Minutes ago thousands of police forces freely lathi-charged and shot tear gas bombs on JNU students.

Sorry Anna!

Anna, we are the youths who have great hope from your satyagrah, Who went on vigils at Tihar, Ramlila Maidan, India Gate and Jantar Mantar. We still have our support for you... However, we are deeply hurt by your team being accommodating political tricks of reservations and secularism. And I think you must clear it first, if you differentiate corruption charges based on caste and religion. If you don't differentiate, why there is a need to caste quota and ullema quota in your team. I have great respect for Arvind Bhai, have been detained by Delhi police on several accounts together... Be it RTI movement or 'cash-for-vote' issue. However, the recent development withing the protest team to be explained.      Four years ago, when 40-50 thousand youths gathered in Delhi demanding equal treatment in education, they were treated with water cannon and tear gas bombs. No one from 'civil' society or political parties raised their issue... Not even you Anna! The p

Let it be, imperfect me with myself

On 29th June, 2012 One more year passed by,  while I remained the one... Staying and counting by. Life has been a space in time.. Where people come and go,  They have to go and they do so.

Let it be, imperfect me with myself,  (just like this poem) Incomplete yet total in run, Let life be "coming soon" with fun...
