Watched this news on NDTV, and it is bone-chillingly horrifying. A wounded policeman lies on the side of the road, begging for help. Gangsters have chopped off one of his legs. The ministers and their convoy pass by, stop, but dither around and then call for an ambulance, which does not come. It takes them 20 minutes to get the policeman into a car, and on his way to the hospital. He dies on the way.

Why would anyone with ready transportation at hand, wait for an ambulance to take a fatally wounded man to a hospital ? Why would not one attempt to even give succor to a man in this condition ? How can one be so matter-of-fact when right in front of your eyes a person is bleeding to death ?Everyone, except the wounded, is walking around like it’s none of their business. This goes beyond callous, it is unhumanly.

The police have later said that they had to protect the Ministers (there were 2 of them) first. But at what cost ? In the convoy was also the State Health Secretary and the Collector. All these men waiting around and watching, and then calling for an ambulance ? It leaves me dumb-struck.
