A few weeks back, an inspector from the crime branch of a police station near my residence called me to say that he was asked to follow up a police complaint that I lodged neary 2 years back against a former employer (for breach of contract and cheating me without paying salary due to me).

Since then I have gone to the Inspector's office a few times only to find that he was not there in spite of the fact that I always make a prior appointment.

Yesterday I received an sms from the police station that my has been "completed" and it is "disposed". The police department took no action at all on my complaint.

I think that I spent (rather than used) a lot of time and my energy in trying to follow up my complaint in vain.

I think that Narendra Modi and his team should consider law and order as priority and set aright the prevailing oddities in State Government Administrations if the latter cannot do it.

These are some situations when I cannot help comparing law and order situations in countries such as Bhutan and Ethiopia where, to my knowledge, crimes were never heard of, when I worked there.

I think that our Government Administrations should learn from other countries leaving aside any biases.
