I really wonder what the police pay-packet is like.
Perhaps he was lonely, but more likely I guess, he was
owing someone some favours which he could not deliver.

It is not always money. Most of the lower rung cops are put on "bandobust"
duty whenever a VIP comes to Goa or there is a festival or rioting. The police
who cannot "bhandh" go "bust". It is no joke standing in the sun for 5 to 7
hours without food or water....or a kind word at the end of the day.
It is true that the cops do not deliver on crime detection. It is also true
that their morale is so low that they just do not care. The policeman's duty
needs to be defined in a manual. The CMs and Dy.CMs roaming about with 10
policemen in tow do nothing to increase the force. 10 police in 3 shifts
means that 30 policemen are overworked . No one takes over their duties in the
respective police stations.
I know policemen working 14 hours a day 7 days a week without leave or
relaxation. there needs to be some games room and a place to have a good
shower at every police station. Some days the police stations do not even have
enough water to wash the plates during summer.
Viva Goa.
