BJP’s ‘creative’ content and Delhi Police upholding motto of 'peace, justice, service'



Protestors Beware: Poor Dilliwallahs – they continue to be flummoxed by all that’s happening around them. And now they will be wary of protesting too. Delhi Police is preparing to procure pump-action rifles (PAR) to check aggressive crowds and protestors. Though supposedly non-lethal, this weapon is most likely to be added to the inventory along with water canons, batons or laathis, fists and abuses. Sometimes one wonders at the relevance of their motto ‘Peace, Justice, Service’.Since our man AK is busy campaigning in Punjab, Goa and Uttarakhand – he may not have taken note of this development, otherwise the issue has the potential of becoming a contentious one. Delhi Police, as we know, is not under Delhi CM’s purview and comes under the jurisdiction of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. So before the cops acquire PARs there is time for AK to organise what he is a champion in– protests!A skilled vote-catcher: All said and done, our man AK needs to be very wary of what he is up against in trying to topple BJP from the municipalities. But then by now he is a seasoned operator himself. Did he not organise Diwali celebrations in front of a replica of Ram Mandir that’s coming up at Ayodhya? And now with the staging of a play on B.R. Ambedkar – our man clearly understands the pitch and is playing on the front foot. The transformation of AK into a thick skinned vote-catcher seems to be complete. Kumar Vishwas needs to simply write him off and go back to writing couplets. (The writer blogs at stateofdelhi.in. This article was first published in National Herald on Sunday.)
