Army should train Police to create professionalism. 6 months training and a 60 year old rifle is not enough to fight with these militants.
Army no where to be found. We should spending on army give that funds to police .
Sad. May the martyred Policemen rest in peace.
But frankly, its due to the utter negligence and incompetency of our Law Enforcement Agencies (esp. Police in this case) that petty dacoits and gangsters have come to this level that they are killing policemen and rangers etc. easily at their will...
Killing of a Govt. Official was considered to be a "No Option" by the law breakers some times back... but thanks to the politicization of these institutions, today even policemen and rangers are not safe. Its kinda "makafat-e-Amal" and will come to everyone responsible in any way.
Nevertheless, its high time, the lawlessness is dealt with iron hands and all responsible are taken to justice irrespective of their political or ethnic belongings.
Very sad news.... They martyrs gave up their lives for our freedom.
Bravo! This is the way it ought to be; soon the dirt would be cleansed and we all can live in peace and we the citizens would admire your courage, sacrifice and sense of public service. Salaams to our police force, those who courageously fought and survived and those who sacrificed their lives while fighting to provide security to us all. Salaams!
May Allah rest the souls of the martyred policmen in peace. and ET, instead of using the word "killed" please use the word "martyred". Moreover, why the heck authorities do not provide sufficient weapons and saftey suits to our policemen (atleast while they are conducting any operations or raids).
Very sad news. My thoughts are with the family of the martyrs. They gave up their lives fighting for our freedom.
