A lesson for VIPs

That day a VIP led by a pilot vehicle moved in full speed blaring horns loudly causing anxiety to all on the road. But they were unmindful. They overtook from all vehicles from left or right wherever there was space. Perhaps the VIP sitting inside the tinted glass did not ask the driver to control the speed. The pilot vehicle maintained the good speed and left the following VIP car at the gate of the Chief Minister’s bungalow. As expected the gate was not opened. A procedure has to be maintained before entering the Chief Minister’s bungalow. Similarly the Raj Bhavan gate cannot be forced open no matter howsoever big you are. That shows there is a limit beyond which one cannot go. VIPs are shamelessly violating traffic rules without any inhibition. We feel ashamed of them. That day that VIP could not enter the bungalow without introducing self. If they cannot do whatever they want even at the gate of their boss why they think of traumatising common public by driving wildly in the crowded area. Even after entering the bungalow they will be waiting for their turn to meet the boss. They pretend in front of their boss as if they are upholder official decorum. That is white lie. Tinted glass is banned in Manipur. The commoners have stopped using it. Who else are using tinted glass? What they are doing sitting behind the tinted glass. In Delhi when a car with tinted glass was stopped by police the finding was mindboggling. A rape victim was sitting inside the vehicle. Rules can be framed but unless it is adhered to by the VIPs where lies its importance. The Government decision to allow only the Governor and the Chief Minister to use the roads inside the Kangla is beautiful. But this rule has been defied even by the middle ranked officials. That’s called desecration of a sacred place, which has possessed all the distinctive qualities of becoming world heritage site. Our VIPs should be forced to join orientation courses to enable them understand on how to respect masses not only their bosses. Many of them were once lowly guy. But all of sudden they have been provided security cover and they have forgotten their past. Do not forget there is a story of a young girl whose mother was pipe maker (used in inhaling ganja). Luckily the girl was married into a rich family and when she came to her maternal home she asked her mother pointing to the pipe from where you plucked it? The mother was befuddled, though she had answer yet she kept mum. Likewise the common people are allowing VIPs to move on the road wildly but in the corner of the heart they have been cursed for behaving wildly on the street. If you cannot enjoy the same prestige after the end of the present term you must know that the curse that the common masses had showered on you has been translated into action. Try to feel the problems facing the commoners on the road and move slowly and steadily. If you behave properly on the road common masses will not scoff at you when you cannot easily enter the Raj Bhavan and Chief Minister’s bungalow.
