What the heck, it's friday. One week sabbatical succeful.:) All right. Enough said. SO the DIG has to pay Rs.500000 for the offence and has to be demoted 7 fold for the traffic violation. Eh? Of course he should be responsible and it is shameful that he was caught without license and violating the traffic rule. Nonetheless, by virtue of drawing parallel, what should we do for a driver responsible for road accident, for all those political leaders who have sucked our blood, and to the king who have sold 'murtis' and to those Maoists who have murdered hundreds? Aba sabai lai example banaudai hidne bhaye saab ko pariwar lai samet sajaye dinu parla ni hoina? What about hundreds who in one way or another, violet traffic rules EVERYDAY; what about those pedestrians who crosses the road oblivious to the "red, orange and green"; what about those officials in government office who takes 1 month to finish a days worth of work; what about so many GM's of khane pani, bidhut, telephone? Heck what about YOU yes YOU and ME, who have violated some minor laws (You: in general hai fer). AND last but not the least, WHO ARE WE to decide or for that matter IS IT RIGHT for us to decide whether a person deserve a punishment 10 fold of his crime and yet others can get away with Rs. 50 fine???? Personal experience: Once I was driving in kathmandu, kesharmahal (to be precise). I did not notice and red light and DANG!!!, was caught by the traffic. He took my license, and I had to pay RS.50 or was it 30, in Darbar marg police station. The bottom line is; let us learn to acknowledge law for what is it, and accept that the measure stick for justice should not be in relation to person?s status. Law is equal to all and sundries. Let us not make someone a scapegoat. He is violated the law, and my take is; with the infamous pictures of him all over the nation in our dailies and online, he has paid more than his share. The point is noted, now shall we move on to fry a bigger fish? He is not some politicians whose resume becomes impressive once on the front page or comes out of jail. Thus his ignominy, though not public, can be imagined. This would be a reminder to all those who abuses the authority. By the way, Mr. Baba did a great job. Kudos to him. IndisGuise:) (No I do not have any relation whatsoever to the culprit. Just in case, feri yaha taaa ;))
