Topic: case study.
7. You are appointed as the S.P of a district. In the first month of your posting, there is a protest organized by Gandhian followers against the mining mafia for which the district is notoriously known for. The protest is primarily against Mr Gabbar who has amassed ill-gotten wealth due to illegal mining and has deep political connections. Not a single FIR has been registered against him so far.
There is political pressure on the administration to keep the status quo along with ensuring that the protest dissipates quickly. The nature of protest is peaceful and as per Gandhian ideals of Satyagraha. However, the protestors are adamant that they will not budge unless action against Mr Gabbar is taken as per the law.
After two weeks of relentless protest, the leader of the protest is killed by some miscreant and this issue becomes a national issue. Protests spread to other districts and states like a wildfire. There is immense public pressure on the administration to act. (250 words)
