We Are Indians - Can We Say It Proudly

Yet another incidence of my life, its really funny but at the same time it left a question and a doubt in my mind. It is about the day I bought a car. 2 days later, all the four alloys of my car got stolen. I was angry, annoyed, disappointed and wasn't getting how to react as I haven't taken the feel of my new drive yet and this happened.

I called up at 100 and was wondering if I can get any clue about the guyz who did it but the funny story started after the arrival of so called Indian Police...........
I was standing beside my car and their first question was - is it your car? I said Yes, its mine. OK
So at what time you parked your car yesterday - I answered that. I was expecting some positive words like we will try to sort things, or will catch the people behind this asap but their reply was - its better to forget about the tyres now, LOL, ain't its funny!!

I was like what? They said it with so much simplicity that I feel like why I am troubling these guyz by asking them to locate the thieves and get my car tyres. They said, we know the place where you can get your alloys, we know the people who have done it but we cant help you as we have no proof to arrest them. Ok, so is it my job to look out for proofs and get them arrested. At that time I felt like these people are even more miserable than me coz I don't know who did this otherwise I would have done something and these guyz whom we rely upon and say - they are here to protect us looks so miserable just for a simple theft case - cant digest it.

After having a 15-20 mins discussion with them, one thing they assured me is that I will not get my alloys back. So I thought its better to forget about it now. Then after, my friends asked me to go for insurance claim. I called up the insurance agent and told him the story. He said we need a copy of F.I.R to prove the company that this has happened. Again, I went to the Police Station, talked to same person about F.I.R and their answer was, we can give you D.D.R but not F.I.R as in that case they actually have to answer why didn't they searched for the tyres and if they did then what were the reasons that they were unable to locate the people behind it. Again, I wasn't getting what to do next as their normal style of talking is like if you ask them for once mo9re they gonna put you behind the bars, hahaha!!! Belive me, they are very much capable of doing that.......:D

I decided to come back as by this time I made myself understood that its all in vain now and nothing can happen. Suddenly, one of the person came to me and said " You want a copy of F.I.R?" I said "Yes" I do. He replied - ok I will get that for you but in return you have to pay Rs.2000 for it. hahahhaa ...lol, I was like what the F***. They all know what has happened yet they are asking me to pay 2000 bucks to give F.I.R which is my right and their duty. Oopssss.......
Did I said something about "Rights and Duties" my apologies - I forgot that this is my India. Ok, I paid them 2000 bucks, got a copy of F.I.R and in return also got some 5-6K bucks from insurance claim.

After all this, I was left with a single thought, its ok the way they treated me when I was in trouble, by God sake, I was in a position to pay them the ransom they asked for - but what about the people who are in miseries and can't pay them. What about their security? What they do when they suffer even severe problems than what I did? I seriously feel sorry when all these thoughts went around my mind, as majority of the people know this but the only thing is that - WHO CARES, not even me unless I went through it. So, just a general question to all my friends, can we do anything about it ??
