A Policeman

A policeman is a useful public servant. He puts on khakhi uniform. He wears a cap or a turban. It has a red band. He has a belt round his waist.

It bears his number on a plate. He puts on heavy shoes. He has a baton in his hand. He looks smart and active. He is generally tall and strong.

His life is very hard. He keeps law and order. He catches the thieves. He chases the thieves and the robbers. He arrests the gamblers and pick-pockets.

Rain or sunshine, he is always on duty. He keeps a watch over bad characters and picks them up when making mischief.

A policeman does many other duties. He controls traffic. He follows processions. He controls crowds in fairs and festivals.
He guards the houses of the leaders. He helps in floods and famines. He can fight the fire also.

An Indian policeman is a changed man now. Once he was very rude. Now he speaks well, but still he needs to be reformed.

He should not accept bribe. He should become more responsible. The government should raise his pay as he is very low paid. In case of his death, his family should be provided for.
