The move made by the Home Minister to seek a report from DGP regarding the Kollam Puttingal temple fire accident, over ruling Home secretary Nalini Netto's report, is not in the right direction. The report submitted by Home Secretary had recommended action against senior police officers for dereliction of duty. And by seeking another report from police the minister is ignoring just officers
It is said that undue collusion of certain Congress leaders with Kollam police to defy the orders of the the Collector is the reason for the tragedy. Instead of punishing the guilty, the attempt on the part of minister to target the just officers is too cruel and that must boomerang in the next election.
If this is the attitude of the government towards the tragedy then the dead ones will soon become culprits and the just officers including Home Secretary and Collector have to reach judicial forums to safeguard themselves.
