That Bullet killed Many …


Rahul Sharma, IPS and Police superintendent of Bilaspur- pulled trigger of his service revolver and killed himself. That fateful afternoon of 12th march, 2012 he put rest to his misery, still unknown to rest of the world. Some say it was her family issue, some claim he wasn’t going well with his superiors. His cause of suicide has disputed opinions, but respect to the man goes undisputed.
Just a few days ago, Mr. Sharma managed transfer to bilaspur after serving and winning people’s heart at Raigarh. Insiders say he was very happy as he was going to be united with his family. His Beautiful wife is serving at high position in railways and stays in Bilaspur, with two cute baby-boys of couple. Even in his Raigarh days, Mr Sharma attempted to spend every possible holiday with family, virtually appearating between family and work Cities.

After serving in disturbed area like Dantwada and tough place like Raigarh, this posting was naturally joyous for him. And then he pulled the trigger in just second month of posting.

A man, worshipped by colleagues, adored by journalists, respected by politicians, feared by bad guys and loved by people, pumped bulled in own head. This news shocked people, sympathy flooded in. All the SMS moving, face-book flooding with RIPs, Candles lighting on public places, tell that he was just not another policeman. He was RAHUL SHARMA.

So, what it meant to be Rahul Sharma.
Ask ordinary constable and he shall tell a “caring forefather of police family”.
Ask ordinary people and they shall say- “A Policewala who is rather reassuring then intimidating
Ask youth and they will tell – “An officer, we like to be one day”.
Ask social, Sports and people’s organization and they tell – “A man always eager to help”
Ask his insiders and they’ll tell – “an administrator, who clings to his integrity and self respect more than anything else”.
Ask those who fought with him against crime and Maoists, they’ll say – "A brave and fearless fighter"

And that one bullet, killed belief of his thousands of believers. That one bullet has sunk into brains and hearts of many. That one bullet has blown people’s faith on the society, relations and system.

That bullet has killed childhood of two innocent boys. Those two kids of Rahul Sharma will raise as fatherless children. They will live, day and night, month and years, till end of their life with heart-aching fact - Their father shot himself due to so and so reason. Mr. Sharma may have got rid of his whatever misery, his ghost shall haunt his children longer then he would have lived normally.

Children will see such pictures to remember how their father looked like  

His wife shall live with the fact that she failed to sooth her husband. She will live to regret and think why his husband searched solace in gun rather than her bun. When and how she lost grip of love, faith and sharing of that may have reduced the burden. That bullet has killed some womanly thing of a women’s life.     

And who pulled the trigger to kill all these - Rahul Sharma himself.......So that bullet has also blown my faith on Rahul Sharma.

Sharma Sahab, Aapse Ye Ummeed Nahi Thi…!!!
