Difference between Scotland Yard and the Mumbai Police Force
August 11, 2006 12 Comments
Y’day travelling through the bus, I was chatting with a colleague of mine! He told that Scotland Yard is supposed to be one of the best detective agencies in the world. And it was laudable that they prevented the terrorists from wreaking havoc again. Then, my other colleague came up with an interesting comparison between Scotland Yard and the Mumbali Police Force – considered to be the Indian Scotland Yard. 
!
Both catch the terrorits/perpetrators of crime in the end. Both don’t let ‘em pass. The only difference is something along the lines of pre and post. Scotland Yard catches them – the criminals – before the crime is committed, whereas the MPF catch them after the crime is committed.
Funny, but scary!!
what about the Kerala Police dude? Pride of um…Kerala!
Hmm… Let’s not discuss that in a public forum shall we? I still fear the safety of God’s Own country and thereby from God’s own Policemen
!
Wait, does that make ‘em Devdoodhs??
hehe…devdoodhs!
there is this joke about the Kerala Police that’s damn funny…but it works only in malayalam. Have to get it transalated sometime…properly.
Aliya Malayalathil para. Enikku manassilavaum!
Hehe…thing is I’m not that great at malayalam…but I’m gonna try it in English…here goes…(laugh anyway)
The FBI, Mossad and the KP decide to find out who’s the best among them. So the test is to capture a tiger from a forest…in minimum time.
FBI goes in first…takes 4 days and bring back the tiger…the agents are all battered and bruised but smile victoriously.
The Mossad go in next…take a full week before a tiger is caught and come out dejected that the FBI beat them.
Next, “nammude” KP go in…4 days…nothing. 1 week…nothing. 2 weeks…nothing. a whole month…nothing. A search team is sent…to their surprise, they find a cow hanging on a tree…upside down. KP beating it up screaming “Sathyam parayada…ne alle puli???”
Now, that’s funny!!
!!
God alone knows when someone will be able to succesfully prevent the crime in the first place.
umm, from what I know, the Mumbai police has been fairly good at it. BTW, *not* a recommendation, but reading maximum city kinda gives u an idea of police brutality, challenges, and the underworld.
@ Hiren: Amen! You know it could also be a conspiracy by the US and UK to get support in the UN Council, which is gonna happen soon for some bills against terrorism. Note: They didn’t catch the terrorists in the act, but just before, and hence dunno whether they were really gonna do it or not

@ Sukhi: Dude, “Maximum City”??
so tom cruise was a mumbai policeman?
they sure were far ahead of their time
Dude, how can Tom Cruise be a mumbai policeman?
I know you are hinting at Minority Report, but then only if Tom Cruise were in the Scotland Yard sorta, hwould it make sense rite?
