About three days back a young man died, crushed by a crowd of about 25000 men. The reason so manywere gathered in one place was because CISF or Central Industrial Security Force had advertised for about 450 vacancies for constables. I had not heard about this particular police force before so it came as a surprise. There is the beat police. Each state has its own controlled by the politicians. Thus as you land at Delhi Airport you are greeted by a long immigration queue managed by Delhi Police. India is perhaps the only country in the world where its own citizens have to undergo the humiliation of immigration check. State Police is also incharge of granting driving licences. Then there is the CID or Criminal Investigation Department, CBI or Criminal Bureau of Investigation, EB or Enforcement Bureau, CRPF or Central Reserve Police Force, BSF or Border Security Force, ITBP or Indo Tibetan Border Police, RPF or Railway Police Force and NSG, commonly called the Bladk Cats, responsible for guarding or revered criminal politicians. I may have missed a few but we Indians are surely lucky to have so many police and one of the highest corruption rates in the world.
