Law & order in Uttar Pradesh might be one of the biggest issues of
concern for residents and visitors of this most populous state of
INDIA, but not for central and state government who are bothered the
least for keeping law & order situations under control. All this is
happening despite UP having seen innumerable riots, spurt in crimes
against women and what not on continuously deteriorating law n order
front . I am saying this on the basis of one of my RTIs which has
disclosed that more than 25% of sanctioned posts of IPS officers of UP
cadre are lying vacant. All this when 73 MPs including PM Narendra
Modi and Home Minister Rajnath Singh have reached Parliament from
Uttar Pradesh. I perceive this as the main cause of problems related
to law n order in UP as due to this shortage of IPS officers, many
officers have been given charges of more than one post who easily
escape accountability on the pretext of being overburdened. Neither
Modi,Rajnath or MPs of UP has done anything for speedy filling of
these posts nor has Akhilesh Yadav, CM of UP has shown any concern in
this matter which directly affects law n order.

As per the RTI reply, cadre strength of IPS officers in UP is 517 out
of which only 386 ( less than 75%) posts are filled up and 131 posts (
more than 25%) are vacant.

As a social worker, I am seeing this reply stunning as it has put
forth many socio-political issues as well.

UP is the state which has seen a ruling political party named BSP
which was established solely to bring SC community into mainstream
into every walk of life but despite reservation and many special
schemes, UP's SC community has not been able to attain proper
representation at IPS cadre as only 52 ( less than 14% ) are from SC
and 15 ( less than 4% ) are from ST category.

Not only this UP has seen rise of Mulayam Singh Yadav's Samajvaadee
party ( SP ) which ruled state many a time on MY (Muslim+Yadav) or
Muslims and OBC community support but when it comes to selection at
IPS,even these two communities are at losing ends as 73 ( less than
19%) working IPS are from OBC community and 11 (less than 3%) are
muslims with 10 (less than 3% ) Non-Muslim minorities.

RTI reveals that 246 out of 386 ( more than 63% )IPS are from General
Category and a whopping 365 out of 386 (more than 94%) Hindus are
working as UP IPS.


IPS being an all India cadre, I am not questioning compliance of
reservation policy of government at all but as a social worker, I see
this less representation of SC,OBC & Minorities at UP top cop posts
as an indicator to establish the complete failure of various schemes
of central and state government aimed for development of these
communities as even after so many years post independence, these
schemes has not been able to bring these communities to the level
where they can get proper representation at top posts.

Based on all this I am also alleging all politicians of doublespeak
with crocodile tears and no real concern for effective implementation
of schemes aimed to bring the deprived section into the mainstream of
society.
