Friend or foe?
Police are known to be friends of people. People do have respect for their work. But it is a matter of great regret that quite often the members of police are found to abuse people. Of late, three photojournalists of a national daily were severely beaten up by some members of police without any apparent reason. Such occurrences are not isolated. Very often we go through this kind of situation. The major task of the police force is to implement the executive orders of the government properly, not to misuse the power given to them. However, it should also be a major concern of the government to provide more facilities and better environment for the police so that they get the inspiration to work for people's good. But the guilty policemen should not be shown any favour. We want their severe punishment.
