I'll share an anecdote regarding a famous IPS turned politician from #LaluRaj #Bihar now .
This was the age when "Saheb" from Siwan & his cronies did all of Lalu's dirty work . At this time a certain Hidayatullah ruled the roost in South Bihar for the RJD . 1/n

Enter this idealistic Doctor turned IPS . Let's call him "SP Ajoy" , the man went on a warpath arresting cronies of Hidayat & Saheb all across erstwhile South Bihar & eventually turned his sights on Hidayat himself but theman was nowhere to be found 2/n
After much sleuthing Hidayat was located to a farm close to Patna . A team led by the SP was sent to arrest him & bring him to justice. The team reached the farm to find security & official vehicles there. Inside Hidayat was eating dinner with the big man himself. 3/n
The SP was aghast but couldn't do anything. He was summarily given a dressing down in front of his quarry & asked to return home.
He resigned the very next day , is a politician today himself as well.
The above anecdote is something I heard as a schoolboy in South Bihar .

Such stories were a dime a dozen there & were indicative of the collapse of law & order in society as a whole in Jungle raj Bihar.
The collusion of criminal & political elements had reduced the police to a state of frustration best exposed by the movies Shool & Gangajal .
