so you're moving into a new apartment.everything has gone as per plan and the only thing that remains is your police verification.
in all the roaming around looking for flats, finalising one, dealing with brokers, i did not feel the trepidation that i felt while going to the sushantlok police chowki today. and guess what, the folks at the police chowki did not disappoint. the treatment meted out was nothing short of criminal-like.
when will our public servants have some sense of public service? why does our police force have to treat all citizens as if they're criminals? doesn't my tax become the policeman's salary?
last but not the least, when the private sector is talking about a paperless world, i did not see one computer in the police chowki. the only technology element in the chowki was an almost-broken walky talky transciever. oh, i forgot, there was also a TV in the barracks (no wonder most policemen were hanging out there - leaving 'public' like me waiting for 'sahabs' to find some time from watching kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi........
bah! i expect too much...........!!!!
