Sir,
The Supreme Court has rightly termed the use of red beacon and siren by VIPs a menace to society. The red beacon has beome a status symbol with power and arrogance.
There are people who are enjoying this facility at the cost of State exchequer, without bothering its impact on common man.
This issue had been brought to notice of powers that be through electronic and print media in the past. But it did not make impact on the Government(s).
When the issue has now come into Supreme Court domain and it has passed order vis-a-vis its use, one expects that the Government(s) act as per its direction.
Those who use it wrongly should be dealt according to law of land, and only those who face security threat should be provided this facility.
Yours etc…..
