But the Chief of Goa Police is doing exactly what one would not expect him to 
do - which is moan in the press about how half of all Street CCTV cameras in 
Goa are not functioning and how this is contributing to increase in unsolved 
and undetected crime.

I can understand that street lights are the responsibility of either the local 
civic authorities or some ministry or other but I cannot understand why the DGP 
of an Indian state cannot lift the phone and put the fear of god into someone 
who should be taking the action on this.

Shows the sorry state of administration in Goa for treating with such lack of 
care and responsibility as crucial  a matter as the public’s street safety.

Folks,Give the choice between believing the director of the FBI or the 
President of the USA - my choice would be the President.
The FBI are professional liars. The more lies they tell, the bigger their 
budget becomes. The President on the other hand, is merely a pathological liar. 
He does not know whether or not he is lying. 
This is why the Republicans love him more than they loved Reagan. 
Lastly, I just love the abasement that Inspector Clouseau has brought to the 
US. According to smoke signals, Trump has agreed to return Alaska to the 
Russians (in exchange for them settling the US national debt.)
