MAPUSA: Assistant motor vehicle inspector Bhalchandra Vaingankar from Sodiem, Siolim, was arrested by the Mapusa police on Friday morning for misbehaving with a traffic police constable near Chacha Nehru park in Mapusa.
According to Mapusa police at around 9am, one Vithal Awadkar ran into the police station complaining that a person had parked his car wrongfully and had restrained occupants of another car near the Chacha Nehru park, which is not far from the police station. Awadkar said he was a head constable attached to a Karnataka minister as personal security officer.
Based on this information, traffic constable Shrivallabh Pednekar rushed to the spot and politely informed car owner Vaingankar to remove his car. Police said Vaingankar, who is attached to the Margao RTO, instead of removing his car, behaved arrogantly with the traffic policemen saying he was an RTO inspector and prevented Pednekar from discharging his duties by pushing him. Traffic police constable Dnyaneshwar Sawant in the presence of his colleague Laxmikant Naik, tried to convince Vaingankar to remove his car but was given the same treatment.
As the police station received information of some commotion taking place there, a team led by PSI Vijay Rane rushed to the spot and took control of the situation. Acting swiftly he took the assistant motor vehicle inspector along with the car to the police station where Vaingankar was arrested after a complaint was filed against him under Section 353 (using force to deter public servant from discharging duty) and 341 (punishment) of the IPC. The accused was released on bail by the junior magistrate first class in the evening. (TNN)

Few days ago it was politician assaulting another politician, now we have RTO assaulting traffic police. And all are public servants, Is Goa turning into a lawless state led by these officials that are supposed to set an examlple?
ReplyDeleteAll these are the neighboring Ghanttis who have missed the Konkan railway stop to Timbuktu and wandered into the Goan territory. They have lost their minds and become frenetically violent turning Goa into a lawless state resembling, the North West Frontier Province in Pakistan. They should all be bundled up, handcuffed and thrown over from the Mandovi bridge into the water never to be seen.
ReplyDeleteMost of the officials when get the blessing of their criminal godfathers- they become so arrogant that they forget that they are the servants of the people and it is the common man who gives them their bread and butter!
