Re: [IAC#RG] GOA CIC PRASHANT PRABHU TENDOLKAR STOPS USING THE REDBEACON

A thought for mulling over.

So many irregularities and violation of Law, minor and major as well takes place everyday, witnessed by us. We feel helpless to curb those. Reason is obvious. Lack of effective mechanism to  lodge a complaint and pursue it to its to its logical conclusion.

My suggestion is for the Government to launch a system for filing FIR on net and making the concerned law enforcement authority to pursue it centrally.

Is it really an impossible task?
