Nadeem Nayyar ji ne kya khoob kaha

Sammaniya Nirnaayak Gan ewan
upastith saathiyon! Naib Tejas
Shriwastav head constable
Maharashtra police. Aaj mai vaad-
vivaad ke vishay, “Maanav
adhikaaron ka anupaalan karte hue
desh mein aatankwaad wa ugrwaad se
prabhaavit tareekon se nipta jaa
sakta hai.” Ke paksh mein apne
vichaar rakhunga. Mahoday keval
tuchh maasikta waala vyakti hi aise
soch sakta hai ke suraksha waalo ke
dwara maanawdhikaaron ka samman
karne se hamaare rashtra ke mahatwa
ko khatra utpann hoga. Mananniya
nayayalay ne ye nishpasht kiya hai
ki suraksha balon ke dwara
giraftaari ke samay bhi
maanawaadhikaaron ka ulanghan na
ho. Parantu sthoiti aapke samaksh
hai. Survey bhawantu sukhin: ki
vichaardhaara waala desh jahan aaj
rakshak samasya ne bhaambheer roop
dhaaran kar rakha hai.
Mahoday! Adhoonikaran ke naam par
gareeb adivaasiyon ki zameenon ko
chheena gya, unhein bandhua mazdoor
banne par majboor kiya gya. Kintu
aaj unke adhikaaron ki koi baat tak
nahi karta.
Prashn uthhta hai ke aakhir ye
naksali hai kaun? Saamaj ke sabse
shaant junglon mein rahne waale,
kheti kisaani kar ke apna jeewan
yaapan karne wo log, jo apne
poorwajon dwaara diye gye dharohar
ko bachaane ke liye sarkaar ke
daman ke virudh hathiyaarband hogye
hain. Aakhir desh ka kaunsa naagrik
chaahega ke use farzi encounter
mein maar diya jaaye.
Ji haan! Adhyaksh Mahoday! Kuchh
aisa hua tha jab lakhan bhaiya,
Sohrabuddin tatha Tulsi ram
Prajapti ko farzi encounter mein
maar diya gya. Ye kaisi widambana
hai?

raashtrasuraksha.

TEJAS (CONT'D)
Raashtriya Suraksha ka arth sirf
seema ki suraksha nahin, seema ke
andar rah rahe logon ki suraksha se
bhi hai. CRPC ki dhaara
41,42,107,151 ke tahet bina warrant

MAYANK
Sharaab piye, usse issue nahi hai.
Ghar mein piye with manners. Lekin

DAZY
Wo sadak chhaap nahi hai.
