Politicians do have deep pockets and connections with the rotten police officers for sure. There is no denying that. But there are a lot of sincere, honest and capable police officers on sensitive intel ops throughout Punjab and have been doing a great job at it. There are departments within the Police force that are beyond any political influence and are being spearheaded by military officers on deputations. All we need to do is gather up the courage and develop the will and consensus on improving and empowering such Police officers. Rangers and the Army certainly will have the requisite oversight and that is a must parameter that needs to be accounted for in order to achieve the goals set forth.
I am sure there are a lot of very sincere officers. I, in no way denigrate the entire police force en mass. That would be unfair. However, as an Institution, the Police is a failure. Simply put, how safe do innocent people feel around Police officers or in Police stations in Pakistan? Our Police force was set up in colonial times as an enforcer for the colonial govt. The Police's job was to protect the Raj's officers and businesses not the public. This is why the Police behave the way they do. When the foundation is wrong, the building cant stand. The Police needs a total overhaul. To achieve this we cant use the same tools that create the problem in the first place. We need a different force from the ground up. My humble opinion of course.
