FIR's ?

Dear Mr. Vohra ji,

 

We must first compliment you on giving us updated information on all fronts. The step proposed to be taken will be revolutionary but (this is a big question) will the Police do it! Notwithstanding, what about Police reluctant to file a FIR when you go to the Police station! I will tell you what happened with us yesterday.

 

We are making serious efforts to make our colony protected from all sides by provision of gates in the service lanes and constructing a wall on the outer border of the colony spending a huge amount of the residents for their benefit to ensure their safety and security of their property and lives. In this exercise we had installed a gate in one of the service lanes, which is exposed to entry of miscreants. This was done on 5th instant and some miscreants broke the entire thing on 6th night in odd hours. When we came to know on 7th morning i.e. yesterday, the managing committee of the society met at an emergent meeting and decided unanimously to file a FIR on the matter and proceeded in one lot all members of the MC and reached the Police Station in the afternoon at 3.45 p.m. Having not found the SHO, who was on leave, we reported to the duty clerk at the P.S. to file a FIR but was reluctant and contacted all his superiors to avoid filing the FIR but ultimately despite our best efforts we could not do it but registered a 'complaint' only! Can you tolerate it? This is what is happening in Police Stations who make all efforts to avoid filing a FIR, so that they will not be accountable for complaints but FIR only!  How can you overcome such situations? This is a matter of serious concern to be pondered over and remedial action to be taken!  Why people that too a registered society is refused to file a FIR, when it is their fundamental right!
