Failure of India’s bureaucrats to stand up for what’s right is troubling

Deccan Chronicle  

Last month, a set of over a hundred retired government servants wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In response, another set of over 100 retired government servants wrote in support of Hindutva politics and accused the signatories, which again it should be noted included a former head of RAW and a former NSA, of being “anti-national”. A report in a national newspaper headlined “Cruise drug raid case: One officer went rogue, agency looked other way” says the following about the case: “The SIT’s internal report says: ‘It is strange to note that in spite of clear cut denial by Arbaaz -- Khan’s friend from whom a small amount of charas was seized -- regarding the involvement of Aryan in procurement or possession of drugs, the Investigating Officer started looking at WhatsApp chats of Aryan without even formally seizing his mobile phone. It appears the IO was motivated to somehow implicate Aryan Khan in the drug case.’” Why did the department and his colleagues not stop this “rogue” officer from implicating an innocent man while the entire nation was watching for weeks?
