I am ashamed to say that i too had the brown chaddi..attitude. but i changed yself nd left the group as they were no different from the touble makers around..i also ask my hindu brothers to give off their ideoloogy and support to such mass murderers and take the route of friendhsip within our community and with hindus and muslims...
just keep all these third classs people away.. they are a posion and menace to the society
To maintain peace in mangalore first thing she should do is to arrest all the chaddi terrorists and all the leaders of BD, RSS, RS etc who always trying to disturb the peace. If she control these anti national elements then our kudla will be peaceful.
Note: Manglore is peaceful only because of PFI and SDPI. If these two organisations were not in mangalore then Chaddi terrorists would have destroyed the name of mangalore.
I dont think so a lady cop can control crimes.. especially in mangalore
Dont favour Muslims much. SDPI, PFI are the trouble makers in Mangalore
Cheddi people are the biggest threat and should control them. Then Mangaluru will be peaceful city
Hope you can serve better and crimes under control
Congrats... all the best
