By Dheeraj Fartode Shocking allegations of misconduct have emerged against a police officer in Nagpur City Police. The officer is accused of abusive and degrading behaviour, particularly targeting accused in Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Sources claim that the senior officer arrives at the police station and calls the accused into a separate room, where the officer not only hurls abuse at the accused but also spits at their face. Later, the officer allegedly kicks the accused in the private parts. In some incidents, when a couple approached a police station in Nagpur to file a complaint following a domestic dispute, the police sent a proposal for preventive action to the officer. However, instead of handling the matter professionally, the officer allegedly made the man sit down, then kicked him in the private parts and leave him in pain and humiliation.

- State police have gain good success in Andhra Pradesh against Naxals and we are trying to deploy force in Chhattisgarh on the same lines of Andhra Pradesh

Absence of co-ordination between the States is the main impediment in cornering the Naxals. And since policing is the State subject, Union Government has its hands tied, stated Union Minister of State for Home RPN Singh here on Sunday.A fine strategy is needed to be evolved to pin down the red brigade, who, the Minister claimed, is biggest challenge to country’s internal security. Naxal violence is not a mere law and order problem as their presence in nine States of country calls for united action in the affected regions. Directors General of Police (DGPs) Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh needs to hold regular co-ordination meetings and field officers should ensure Naxals do not have the advantage in border areas where they hide after striking at will in any region, he further said.
The visiting Union Minister was interacting with The Hitavada on Sunday during his day long visit to the city.
Earlier, Singh took stock of anti-naxal operations in Gadchiroli and Gondia district at Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) base here. He claimed deployment of central forces in Naxal affected area has provided good results. They are ably aiding the State police force and applauded the good work of forces who are operating working under difficult situation. The Government is providing all necessary support to them and now police are taking action against the front organisations of Naxals who are aiding naxals and spreading the ideology.
Similarly the Government has also undertaken developmental works so as to wean away locals from the influence of Naxals. Special packages are on in tribals areas, and Government machinery has also undertaken programme to popularise the welfare measures of State and Singh said its result would be visible soon.
Admittedly the Minister said lack of road connectivity continues to be a major problems and same is being addressed in development plans for these areas. When asked about logistic plan in the Naxal affected area, the minister said that former Union Home Minister P Chidambaram had prepared a logistic plan and the government is still working on it. “State police have gain good success in Andhra Pradesh against Naxals and we are trying to deploy force in Chhattisgarh on the same lines of Andhra Pradesh,” he informed. However, Singh declined to comment on failure of Maharashtra police in investigation of Dr Narendra Dabholkar murder case.
Talking about upcoming general election, Union Minister of State for Home RPN Singh said that people will reject Narendra Modi’s model of development and BJP is day dreaming about achieving majority “Congress have its policies and party will surely retain power at Centre. The BJP have no agenda, no development programme and they are banking highly on the image of Narendra Modi,” he claimed.
Local Congress leaders including Anees Ahmed, Jaiprakash Gupta, Atul Kotecha along with Member of Parliament (MP) Sanjay Nirupam were also present at the press conference.
