Panchkula, January 25

An Army jawan posted at Chandimandir has alleged that the office of Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Panchkula, Kamal Deep Goyal, is not paying heed to his grievance related to an arms licence from the last two years. Interestingly, the jawan has tried everything from filing an RTI application, writing a letter to Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij, lodging complaints and subsequently sending reminders at the Chief Minister’s window, but even these attempts did not bring any positive result.

In a tweet earlier this month, tagged with the CMO Haryana, DCP and CP, Panchkula, Home Minister Anil Vij, PMO India, the office of the President of India and the Haryana police the jawan stated, “Arms licence banwane ke liye SP office, Panckula, ke two year se chakkar kat raha hu but no solution. Please help sir apke jawan ki” (I have been visiting officials concerned from last two years for an arms licence, but nobody has paid heed to my grievance).”

He also shared the copy of letter he wrote to Anij Vij and his contact details while urging officials to address his long-standing grievance.

In the letter, he has mentioned that he is a jawan posted at the AFT Legal Cell, HQ Western Command, Chandimandir Cantonment area. He stated that he had filed two complaints at the CM’s window but not action was taken in this regard. When contacted, the jawan said, “They should give me a valid reason why they have raised an objection to my arms licence application. I have filed two complaints at the CM’s window and an RTI, but nothing has been done on my grievance.” DCP Kamal Deep Goyal could not be contacted for his views on the issue.
