The people who are supposed to uphold the law are now the ones breaking it. In a shocking case from telangana, Inspector & SHO of Dornakal police Station, mahabubabad — Bhukya Rajesh — and his gunman Constable Daravath Ravi were caught red-handed by the anti-corruption bureau (ACB) while demanding a ₹50,000 bribe and accepting ₹30,000 to release a seized vehicle. This isn’t just about one case — it’s a reminder of how deep corruption runs in India’s police system.
1. The Bribe That Exposed the Guardians of Law
The duo allegedly demanded ₹50,000 to release a seized vehicle.
They finally accepted ₹30,000 in cash, and that’s when the Telangana acb swooped in and caught them red-handed.
The very officers who should be protecting citizens were busy extorting them instead.
2. A Pattern of Rot in the System
This is not an isolated case — every week, reports emerge of cops, clerks, and officials shamelessly demanding bribes.
Instead of fearing the law, corrupt officials treat their positions as money-minting machines.
The public is left helpless, forced to pay up just to access justice or basic rights.
3. Where Is the Fear of Law?
When policemen themselves get caught looting citizens, what message does it send?
Accountability is nearly zero — most officials get bail, return to duty, and continue their old tricks.
Unless punishments are harsh and immediate, corruption will keep thriving like a parallel system.
4. Why capital Punishment Must Be Considered
Current penalties are too mild — suspension, transfers, or small jail terms don’t scare anyone.
For crimes where law protectors themselves turn predators, stricter punishments — even capital punishment in extreme cases — should be debated.
Only the fear of severe consequences can deter officials from shamelessly abusing their power.
5. Citizens Pay the Price
Ordinary people suffer most — a farmer trying to get his tractor released, a worker fighting a false charge, or a businessman stuck with harassment.
Every bribe taken by a corrupt cop is money stolen directly from the hardworking citizen.
Trust in the system erodes when the public sees cops caught red-handed walking free for weeks.
Bottom Line
The arrest of Inspector Bhukya Rajesh and Constable Daravath Ravi is just another headline in India’s endless corruption saga. But unless the government enforces strict, fear-inducing punishments, these stories will keep repeating. The day law enforcers start fearing the law is the day india will finally see change.
