The recent Supreme Court judgement on encounter killings,many say,is an opportunity to improve professionalism and transparency in the functioning of police.One often tend to overlook the fact -subservience of the police to the ruling political class-which happens to be the root cause of lawless behaviour by the police.At the same time,the judgement must not build unnecessary pressure on the working of the police.One mus remember that policemen are also human beings and their human rights count as well.It is widely presumed that police overstep the law.But who decides what the ideal dividing line is between violence and human rights?As George Orwell said,people sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
