This is an insult/affront to our Supreme Court when SC orders directions to have him dealt with for assaulting a person in custody in 2011 is disregarded and appointing him as IG. Government has gone nuts

Haha. Prosecution of all wrong doers - including IGP himself who was ordered by the SC for disciplinary punishment and found guilty of torture.

Constitutional council not approved this appointment. Where is law and order in this country. RW is worst than Gota. Similarly, if JVP comes to power they do the same thing violating constitution and there will be fresh ARAGALAYA to chase the blokes out

Whenever God decides to destroy someone, First He gives him power and position . Then He makes him mad . When you study history, you can find more evidence to establish this phenomena . And of course, it will apply to those guys as well.
