Administrative reforms commissions,recommendations submitted

The second administrative reforms commission,headed by Mr.Veerapa Moily has brought the issue to the boil once again.In its 342 page report on Public Order submitted to the Prime Minister.In the chapter on constituional issues and special Laws,the commision has recommended the enactent ofa law giving sweeping powers to the centre for deployment of its forces and direct them in case of major public order problems which could lead to breakdoiwn of constitutional machinery in a state.To end the unholy nexus of Politicians and Police,The ARC favoured separation of crime investigation from Law and order duty,and fixed a three year tenure to for Police men at all levels of operations.The Commission has recommended the setting up of a agency in every state and advocated a new law to empower the CBI to federal crimes like terrorism,sedition and human trafficking.Coming to encounter deaths ,the recommendations includesetting up of anindependent inspectorate to enquire into encounter deaths within 24hours.The commission wants the control of Crime Investigative Agency(CIA) should be with a board of investigation.The commission wants the Board to be headed by a retired/sitting Judge of High Court,An eminent Lawyer,or an eminent Citizen,or a retired Police Officer.The Best part of the Joke is,any one of these should be a appointment by the Politicaly headed Chief Minister.Doesnt it take the cake.To white wash the entire proceedure the Brushes are handed over to Chief Minister.Happy days are here again.This is no reform but going back to the days of emegency.Thats all these guys are capable of thinking of.Whether implemented or not Dont expect great things to happen.
