Chapter 14 Much Better Than Expected
The next morning, there were many people outside the ward where Rawdon was, including policemen and reporters from various media outlets, who wanted to interview Rawdon.
"Gert, North, you two handle it. I'm going to take a call. Don't let these reporters in for now." Yada's face was covered in sweat. These reporters were too crazy. He and dozens of police officers from the Spanda Police Station barely stopped them.
His boss had just called him and told him not to accept interviews for the time being and not to say anything for fear of saying the wrong thing, especially about Roton, which he absolutely could not let these reporters see now.
Because his superiors had already made arrangements for what Roton would say next.
This riot caused heavy casualties. Someone must be held accountable for it.
The police system will be affected. Needless to say, there will be media criticizing the police for their inaction, such as insufficient manpower, improper on-site handling, incompetence, etc.
The incident has already happened. Even if the police system has tried its best, people will not think that way. People will only look at the results, how many people died and how many people were seriously injured.
After all, everyone usually has a lot of opinions about the police, so when encountering such things, it is natural to vent their dissatisfaction.
So when police brass saw Rawdon’s bravery, they immediately had an idea.
This is the shining point of their police system. Look, our police are risking their lives to protect Miss Itas Reba.
Then the public’s anger can no longer be vented on the police. When the time comes, they will not care which department is in trouble, but will first clear themselves of responsibility.
"Director!" Yada walked to the side and pressed the answer button on his mobile phone. After hearing the voice coming from the other side, he straightened up suddenly and shouted respectfully.
The call was from the chief of the North Central District Police Station in Mumbai, a big shot. Normally, it was difficult for Yada to see the chief. Whenever there was anything, it was the people from the district police station who gave them orders.
This was the first time the director called him directly.
"Yes, yes, Rotten has woken up, but he is still very weak. The hospital recommends observing him for a few more days... Got it, I will complete the task." After Yada finished speaking, he put away his phone and let out a long sigh after hearing the other party hang up the phone.
Looking at the stopped reporters, Yada’s face was full of smiles, and this time he showed his face in a big way again.
Of course, the main thing is that Rotun showed up, but Rotun was his subordinate, which meant he represented the Spanda Police Station, and as the chief he would certainly get huge benefits.
"Chief, what did the higher-ups say?" Just as Adah turned around and walked a few steps, Gert came over and asked.
Yada was unhappy. Didn't he just ask him to maintain order and prevent reporters from breaking in?
Moreover, the first thing this guy did was to ask what the superiors said, which means that he had been paying attention to him just now and obviously heard something.
This is eavesdropping, which is extremely bad behavior.
Look at North, he really carried out his orders seriously, always standing on the front line, explaining everything to those reporters.
Nos Kansal, deputy inspector of police, captain of the action team of Spanda Police Station. He is considered the third most important person in the police station. He has strong professional skills and is mainly responsible for some major cases of a serious nature. He is the most important cadre of Spanda Police Station.
He did not participate in any power struggles in the police station, but always worked diligently and conscientiously. Due to his outstanding abilities, both Ada and Gert valued him very much.
Of course, this kind of respect means that you can go to him when you have difficulties, and North does not get any benefits in most cases.
It means that you do the dirty and tiring work, and you stand aside when there are benefits.
To be honest, there are not many people in the police station who can catch Roton's eye, and North is one of them.
In India, policemen like North who actually do their job are very rare, almost extinct. There is no soil for such people here, and everyone is just making a fortune.
"Director Shah will be here soon." Although Yada was dissatisfied, he still answered Gert's question.
"Ah?" Gert asked in surprise, "Is Director Shah coming in person?"
Yada said nothing more and walked towards North.
Gert rubbed his hands, thought for a while, walked aside, took out his phone and called his backer.
"Inspector General, are you coming too?" After asking, it was confirmed that Director Shah would come, and almost all the leaders of the district police station would come, which surprised Gert.
Only then did he realize that Roton had really done something big and a good thing.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Yada in front of him. It was a good thing indeed, but Yada was the director, and he would obviously get more benefits than himself as the deputy director.
More than an hour later, almost all the senior officials of the North Central Police Station in Mumbai arrived at the scene, mainly Director General Pirandu Shah, Deputy Director General Paddy Jaishankar and Inspector General Shishji Tomar.
Seeing so many senior police officers appear, reporters present immediately surrounded them and wanted to ask Chief Pirandu Shah to say a few words.
Of course, Pirando would not miss the opportunity to perform and gave a very passionate speech, mainly talking about the district police station's attention to the matter, the bravery of the police officers, especially Roden Mahesh, etc.
No matter where you are, there is competition.
The on-site security personnel for this beauty pageant were transferred from the grassroots police stations under the police stations in various districts of Mumbai. Rotun was his subordinate, so the credit naturally went to the North Central District Police Station. Chief Pirando was of course in a very good mood.
You should know that after the riot, the Chief of the Mumbai Police Department was furious. Fortunately, after learning about Rodon's deeds, his anger was slightly relieved.
Mumbai is divided into seven districts, each district has a district police station. For example, the North Central District Police Station is one of them, and its chief is Pirandu.
The Mumbai Police Department manages seven district police stations, so the Mumbai Police Department is the boss of the Mumbai police system.
This is similar to the director of the municipal bureau of a prefecture-level city in China, and Pirando is the director of one of the districts. The Spanda Police Station is at the grassroots level, equivalent to a police station.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Pirando has received instructions from the director to publicize this incident widely to show the wisdom and bravery of the Mumbai police and not let the media put the blame on them.
After that, Pirando and the other two entered the ward where Rawdon was, while other leaders of the district police station continued to deal with media reporters outside.
Seeing the three people coming in, Rawdon was startled.
Of course he knew these three people, he had seen them on TV, but this was the first time he had seen them in person.
I thought it was great that the higher-ups sent someone to visit and express their condolences, but I didn't expect that the district police chief and other big bosses would come in person. This meant that I had done the right thing this time, which was much better than I expected.
The district chief, Pirandu Shah, is a first-class superintendent of police. He has a national emblem and two five-pointed stars on his shoulder straps. He is an IPS, or federal police, a senior official, the real power holder in the North Central District police system, the top leader.
Deputy Commissioner Paddy Jaishankar, Second Class Superintendent of Police, has a national emblem and a five-pointed star on his shoulder straps. He is the local police officer of Maharashtra and the highest rank that a local police officer can achieve.
Inspector General Sishjit Tomar, a third-grade superintendent of police, has a national emblem on his shoulder badge and is also a local police officer in Maharashtra.
In India, there are very few federal civil servants. For example, there are only about 5,000 federal police officers nationwide. They are all senior police officers, so their salaries and benefits are naturally excellent.
Likewise, the number of federal civil servants is about the same as the number of police officers.
In addition, there are also not many federal civil servants in the judicial system and the diplomatic system.
In short, the number of federal civil servants is really small compared to the population of more than one billion.
Most of the officials in government departments are local state civil servants who assist federal civil servants in handling affairs. These are the people who really get things done.
Of course, there are more employees below them, whose treatment is even worse. They directly work at the grassroots level and do the most tiring work.
In fact, police officers like Rawdon are this type of employee, and they receive the worst welfare benefits.
If you say that these employees are within the system, that seems to be true, but the difference in treatment is huge. They may be equivalent to temporary workers in China, or even worse.
Of course, to compare misery, we still have to look at the place and the comparison.
Compared to the many poor people in India who are hungry and often starve to death, these lowest-level employees are also highly sought after and the competition is fierce; not everyone can get this job.
In a metropolitan city like Mumbai, the number of IPS is more and in many places only one or two heads are IPS and the rest are local police.
In short, federal civil servants are all senior officials, the real masters, while state civil servants are just assistants, and there is a world of difference in their status.
