Through these columns I would like to bring to the notice of the top brass of law enforcers that the general public does not get an inferiority complex only because of joblessness or other frustrating elements, but probably the biggest these days is the lifestyle of our government Servants who practically get almost everything on public money.
It is the divide one sees in every aspect of life from transport to schooling of children etc. In this regard the long and useless escorts are the biggest trauma these days. They not only create panic in the traffic, block the roads and moreover the guards in the escort behave as if their sahib is the most precious thing in the world while all others are rotten insects who should not have been born.
We have not only seen these escorts becoming useless when there were attacks, but we have also seen them turning into killing spree themselves. In this regard I would that share my experience of once travelling alongside one Ranger's big shot.
He came out with atleast three cars in his escort with may be 8-10 armed guards. And not only this, surprisingly there were atleast 3-4 Rangers sepoys with a mobile standing alert at almost 8-9 places between KDA officers colony near national stadium to Rangers headquarter near PIDC.
If he is that much afraid of his life how would he be able to protect public life, the time he spends thinking of his safety one wonders would he have time left for anything else.
Secondly there is a strange and similarly rude escort carrying a government official every morning on Sharae Faisal at around 9:30 AM, now if he is a government official he is late for office. He should be sacked if he is a minister I wonder how punctual he is. In both cases the guards in escorts grossly misbehave with the people. If this continues one would see more and more people hiring private guards and escorts and then you would not have your roads safe for travel as these private and government escorts and guards would push you into ditches ensuring a safe travel for their precious sahibs.
