It is about time we realize, we need to step in collectively to save Tamilnadu police to make sure they retain their capacity to save us. While we cannot get Joslin back, we can definitely ensure no other girl gets shot in the face.
The police officers need a 8-hour shift. They need at a 5-day work week. They need to be compensated for the 12 days holidays the rest of us civilians enjoy.
The police officers are supposed to be deployed into actions that will use them as trained law enforcement units. Buying vegetables for senior officers' families and transporting their parents around family functions should not be the tasks of police officers.
They need controlled access to relevant fire power to fight serious/violent crime.
The list goes on but these are just my views. The sustainable solution comes out of asking a police officer. To those of you who care, here is a discussion with a ex-police officer from Australia. Tamilnad police can definitely learn from this discussion. So can we, especially those of us in the 18-25 years age bracket as they are the ones who stand a chance to get to decision making roles in law enforcement in the years to come.
The existng batch of 45-55 year olds have failed us for decades. They were busy sending us to schools. it is about time we took the baton from them and take this journey forward.
