K P S Gill is no Rathore
The security won by this brave and fearless policeman was squandered away by the dynastic fascist party called the Congress, which launched the pogrom of massacre against the Sikhs after the demise of Indira Gandhi.
I agree that his behaviour in the Governor's party when he intentionally patted the bottom of Mrs Rupan Deol Bajaj, IAS officer and the acting Chief Secretary of the state was in bad taste. But that act in itself does not constitute molestation or even an attempt to ‘outrage’ the modesty of the lady.
The very fact that the objectionable action took place in full public view shows that the intent was only misguided bravado and nothing more. KPS Gill did not bring his influence and stature to either suppress the facts or evade accountability for his misguided act.

He was punished and he has appealed. The fact that Mrs Rupan Deol Bajaj was not a 14-year-old schoolgirl but a senior IAS officer has to be borne in mind and moreover the system did not fail her. The Governor acted immediately.
This is not the case with Ruchika. She was molested and false cases foisted on her younger brother in order to further traumatise and humiliate the family of the victim. Moreover she committed suicide as she was just too young to bear the terrible consequences of the predator S P S Rathore IPS.
Anyone suggesting a moral equivalence between K P S Gill and S P S Rathore is trivialising the death of the young child and molestation of a young impressionable child is an altogether different proposition than patting the bottom of a Chief Secretary.
Certainly K PS Gill was in the wrong but to somehow suggest that he too is in the same category as that criminal S P S Rathore is altogether misplaced.
K P S Gill ruthlessly hunted the terrorists who made normal life impossible in Punjab and has earned the nation's gratitude. He cannot now be thrown to the wolves just because all the insects are coming out of the woodwork.

Bahu is right about KPS Gill.Of course he was wrong in his mis-behviour towards the IAS officer.Hev has been punished for his mistake.The country, pasrticulasrly Panjab, is grateful for his exterminating the Sikh terrorists.We are all proud of him.
I read your (Bahu) other article about Sikh Massacre in 1984 and was commendable. My concern about your current article is still there because you and the other media outlets have glorified this low life dirt bag Gill as Super Cop for eliminating thousands of Sikh youths in the name of terror.
I have given the link to another article on the anti_sikh riots which I hope Mr H Singh will read. http://wordcraftandstatecraft.blogspot.com/2009/10/anti-sikh-holocaust-and-congress-party.html
It may also be noted that Rathore is no K P S Gill. Gill brought a terror stricken state back to normalcy. Rathore's achievement was only a peak in the balance sheets of departmental records. The first time most people heard of him was on account of the disgrace that he brought to the police force.
