Let me narrate as to what happened today ( too tired to type, still let my try to complete)

We loaded 5 of our vehicles with hygienically cooked food , each vehicle had authentic permission from Salem collector. Each vehicle serves a specific target area each day.
People know we will come there at the specified spot each day , so they eagerly wait for our vehicles , most of these hungry people have stomach full and many pack the same food for dinner , so our vehicles are lifelines for hundreds of hungry people, many don't have ration cards
No ration card means no Govt benefits or rations

Now my Jeep fully loaded with 750 kgs of piping hot tomato rice , areca nut plates and mineral water bottles is stopped in front of Salem GH

Assistant Commissioner Mr.Eashwaran ( AC ) comes in bike stops my Jeep
The following conversation endues

AC : take the vehicle to Shevapet police station
Me : why sir
AC : How many times should I tell you not to do this
Me : what ?
AC : you are not supposed to display this photo
Me : you mean to say our Prime Minister's photo ?
AC : yes
Me : why what's wrong in displaying our PMs photo
AC : won't you understand if I say once , he uses the word (MAIRU means hair in Tamil , abusive word)
Me : Mr. Mind your words
AC : what will you do
Me : what's your problem now, I have valid permit why do you stop me now
Me : so many hungry people are awaiting our food, whatever problem you have I will come to your police station after delivering this food, if you have doubts kindly send one of your police officers with my jeep

AC : that's not my problem, remove that picture
Me : if that's your problem let me remove it for the sake of people who are starving ( I remove the pictures of our @PMOIndia )
AC : no , now you have to remove your saffron Chadar
Me : So you are pushing the envelope, ok let me remove that too.
Ok sir
Me : Sir I am wearing a saffron colour underwear , should I remove that too ?
AC : one day I will take care of you

Me : Mr remember you are a Govt servant, you are getting paid for what you are doing, we are helping you, risking our lives and spending time energy and money
Me : We are serving the society in our own way , you are paid for what you are doing, and we aren't

AC starts threatening, uses singular language , I start to video record in my Mobile his crazy behaviour , he gets wild, using his underlies he snatches my mobile, deletes videos
Suddenly a posse of policemen arrive, AC leaves the spot asking us to deal with Shevapet police inspector as she arrives.She asks us to move the vehicle to Salem Corporation, police officer sits in my vehicle as I move it to Salem Corporation, he says your vehicle is being seized
Police ask me to offload the food in corporation premises, and say food will be distributed by corporation and vehicle will be seized , I refuse , I say my people are hungry and starving , I have to serve them,
Salem Corporation commissioner Mr.Sathish arrives ...
Shevapet police inspector tells that we have not followed the rules, corporation commissioner (CC) checks our papers and tells her ( lady inspector. (LI)
CC : All their papers are clean, they have the permission from Salem collector, why did you stop them
LI : Sir AC asked me to
CC asks us certain things , upon hearing our response CC satisfied and asks LI release the vehicle and distribute food as planned by us.

We take the vehicle and distribute the Prasadam as usual. We were delayed by 2 hours, hungry people had to wait because of the crazy AC
Earlier AC questioned the quality of our food , I told him " kindly call your police stations , as we are supplying prasadam to most of your police stations for the past 9 days. They will vouch for our quality. He had no answers. In the mean time , press arrived and told AC..
Press "sir even we media persons are taking their piping hot food each day, in fact policemen stationed in Salem collectorate also take their food, it's so tasty "

I am very clear, we are not in politics to maalish Babu's , we are here to serve the people

We can't be cowed down
Images of police personnel taking prasadam. This AC should check facts at least from his department people before pointing fingers at us.
Every day we get request from police personnel to deliver food to them and we help them , we respect men in uniform. Hope AC sees this
Look to whom all we are serving
