WHEN LAW MAKERS BREAK THE LAW!!!
In a usual weekend out recently, I noticed something unusual. It was in the evening and while we drove our car out from the parking lot, I spotted this Vehicle parked in the “NO PARKING” zone near Inorbit Mall, Vashi. We slowed down the car & stopped at the other side as I wanted to get out of it and check it. I walked towards it. As I got bit closer I found, it was having a red/orange beacon.
As per my knowledge Red beacons are for high dignity posts in government. Easily I could get it that it must be the vehicle of a high authority Government Official for sure. Also as per my knowledge, seeking to end the VIP culture, the Union Cabinet had decided that beacon lights will be removed from all vehicles from May 1 2016, except emergency vehicles, like ambulances and fire brigade. However, the central government had specified that the vehicles on office duty which are designated for the... emergency and disaster management duties may be allowed to use multi-coloured red, blue and white lights.
Neither was it an emergency vehicle nor any disaster there. Moreover what was more irony; it was PARKED in NO PARKING Zone.
Shouldn’t everyone including law makers supposed to be abide by the rule? I was with my teenage son and imagine what lesson might have gone to his mind. Is it that being a part of the law making team makes you put above the law automatically??
It might appear as a small incident but we can never ignore its lethal impact on young minds. Vehicle should never be parked in "No-parking" zone, it seems, people who sermon/teach people about this forgot learn this by themselves, first.

Law-breaking and the courage for it doesn't take a lot, it begins with small things like this. While this is a harmless example, it is breaking the law nevertheless. Such careless attitude is what encourages people to not heed lawmakers.
ReplyDeleteYou wrote about a very important topic. Such a shameful act by the so called lawmakers.
ReplyDeleteThere are many people who do not know these simple rules
ReplyDeleteThese VIPs consider themselves to be above the law. This is a small crime as compared to many more they commit and get away with.
ReplyDeletehypocrisy is everywhere.
ReplyDeleteHypocrisy is everywhere.
ReplyDeleteSo disappointing that the powers that be truly believe they have every power to misbehave.
ReplyDeleteYour post is so true and honestly I wonder how to fight it out with these law makers who break their own laws
ReplyDeleteSuch acts appear small but major reason for imbalance of law and order.

Law breakers are everywhere. Beacon lights do not prove that the users have impunity to park anywhere. I wish these truants could be booked. Unfortunately, the high and mighty stay safe while the little fish get caught. Sad, but true!

What a shame! The so called high profile VIP making mockery of the system. Glad you wrote about this. #surreads #myfriendalexa #blogchatter
ReplyDeleteI once saw a car with a on government duty sign parked on the footpath. Yes, footpath. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThis is too shameful. Sadly, it's such a common sight!
ReplyDeleteI feel in India the authority is been misused. Rules are same for everyone to follow.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this, we need to share this so that people can learn
ReplyDeleteIt happens more often than one can imagine. Good to share this post.
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking the initiative to expose such things
ReplyDeleteVery nice. Yes our leaders should lead by example.
ReplyDeleteIt’s very easy to abuse the power given to you and specifically if it’s our country, but we should still do our part to remind them of their fault and follow law ourselves.
ReplyDeleteLawmakers think they are making the law for others to follow, not themselves. Lot of change needed

You're actuallly really gutsy... i read so many blogs and cant remember the last time someone took an official to task like this. proud of you
ReplyDeleteLaw makers or law breakers ?As a responsible citizens its our duty to follow the rules as kids are watching us !!#SOEREADS #MyFriendAlexa
ReplyDeleteIt has to be intentional irony to park in front of a no parking sign. They think no one is going to hold them accountable.
