IMPORTANT SUGGESTIONS FROM DR. KIRAN BEDI FOR GURGAON PEOPLE

As an Indian, I have been feeling helpless and angry over whatever has been happening in Mumbai. I shared my experience of various vulnerable points such as DLF Infinity Towers where SECURITY HAS BEEN NON-EXISTENT.

To a lot of us, the following may not be surprising:

- Every person happily side steps the metal detectors right under the noses of the security guards.
- The checking of the cars coming in and out of the office complex is a BIG JOKE.
- Like I did, if you were to question the security personnel, you will be met with complete indifference and even abusive language.

As I shared the above with Dr. Kiran Bedi, the shocking aspect that she shared with me was:

GURGAON IS VERY VULNERABLE AS IT HAS MANY OFFICE COMPLEXES CLUSTERED AT THE SAME PLACE AND SOME OF THE LEADING CORPORATES AND MNC.

For all of you who work in Gurgaon, the following were DR. KIRAN BEDI’S suggestions:

A- Individually and collectively walk up to the security professional and authorities and demand their best services.
B- Individually and collectively walk up to your HR/Admin and ask them to get the security increased.
C- Conscientiousness on part of every one of us is required; we are responsible for our lives and terrorism will breed in case we remain indifferent.
D- If required, take snaps and video clips from your mobile/other devices to check on the apathy of the security guards and demand accountability.

WE ARE NOT SAFE AND GURGAON IS ESPECIALLY UNSAFE. PLEASE DO NOT REMAIN INDIFFERENT!

IF WE REMAIN INDIFFERENT AND IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN TO US OR OUR LOVED ONES, MORE THAN THE TERRORIST WE WILL BE TO BLAME.
