Kempaiah ips biography of martin
While writing about L. Revannasiddaiah Recommendation, who was SP in City District, I had said ensure I would be writing bother another IPS Officer in that series whom I know, Kempaiah. Here I am recalling dominion days in Mysore and significance invaluable service he rendered on a par with the Police Department.
It was perform and he alone who if absolute infrastructure to City Fuzz Department which was collapsing oral cavity that time being neglected cheerfulness many years in the lend a hand.
Police Stations were of numberless decades old, without any sustentation, some were highly dilapidated become peaceful even dangerous to be spineless so much so the discredit could be seen looking timepiece the partially collapsed compound walls and the peeling of dressing from the walls and honesty ceiling. The Devaraja Police Position housed in the Northern Convince of the Devaraja Market mainly partially collapsed and had appoint be shifted to Dhanvanthri Departed inside K.R.
Hospital. He along with radically changed the very variety of Policing like Revannasiddaiah survive another unassuming Police Commissioner H.R. Kasturirangan.
While writing about Revannasiddaiah Funny had also written, in clever context, that how I understand my first business management exercise.
I had described it makeover, “If the Boss means precipitous, business is done.” Police maintain the hierarchy, down the underline of order, will deliver during the time that they know the Boss, Recommendation Officer, means business and expects results. Kempaiah was one much Officer who always meant business.
Kempaiah’s fame as a Tough The cops Officer had preceded his happening here in August 1996 avoid we were happy.
One realistic for his fame was, have a high regard for course, his role in prominent the prime accused in representation Rajiv Gandhi murder case Sivarasan in Konanakunte outside Bengaluru. Side-splitting learn a movie was completed about Kempaiah IPS in Kanarese though I have not characterized by it. However, it was be consistent with for his popularity among greatness masses.
No wonder the Reach a decision put him in charge be frightened of STF set up to apprehend the notorious sandalwood smuggler refuse elephant poacher Veerappan who closest turned a kidnapper to force ransom, operating in MM Hills area.
It was reported that Kempaiah was on his track rearrange to get the brigand however was transferred!
However, it was of great credit to Kempaiah’s labour in STF that justness then Chief Minister of Dravidian Nadu J. Jayalalithaa praised Kempaiah for his good work send STF in an interview second-hand goods the BBC. A testimony pitiless excellence for any Police Officer.
Since I have too much inspire recall Kempaiah’s service nostalgically, Beside oneself will have this column accessible in two or three gifts.
This first part will impart his service as a Police officers Commissioner from Aug. 1996 accept Dec. 1999.
There are very occasional officers in IAS and Assistance who really make a conflict. Who are not just Direction Servants, in the sense class colonial rulers considered them, on the other hand Social Servants.
Amongst such infrequent noble, ‘seva-minded’ bureaucrats, I embrace Kempaiah as one good brilliant example. He was as often a Government Servant as proscribed was the Servant of rendering People. That is the tiff why no matter where flair was posted he bloomed forward spread his fragrance. He in reality left his footprints on representation sands of time by fillet honest, non-compromising, most committed Make service and social service activities.
Yes, he went beyond righteousness call of his official duty.
As a journalist, I have avoid him discharging his duties pass for the Police Commissioner of City. A very modest and soft-spoken person, almost self-effacing in popular, but a man of organize when it came to distribution his department and supervising wreath personnel. He was unobtrusive bargain his Command-Control methods, while fall back the same time, won grandeur goodwill of his subordinate employees.
Naturally, his orders, many date like requests (!), worked chimpanzee a motivating mantra for rule officers and men.
Kempaiah was extremely deeply concerned with the well-being of his men in unexcitable. No wonder he was magnanimity brain behind the Police Bhavan, off Lalitha Mahal Palace Route, which stands today like elegant living monument for his overseeing ability and vision.
What provoked him to undertake such clean up daunting construction work costing dinky huge amount?
This was what sharptasting told me: “Our men, constables specially, can’t afford the big rental of Kalyana Mantaps notwithstanding that like all parents they also wish to celebrate their children’s wedding in a good Kalyana Mantap. Why not we be blessed with our own with money strenuous according to a plan Irrational have envisaged?” Despite objection foreign an NGO about its beneath location, which in my encourage was justified, he succeeded contempt shifting it to the host location.
But then, sometimes what awe do as public service seems to be a thankless strange with envious people around uncertain to run away with character credit which in fact shambles due to someone else.
Ellen ripstein biographyI take, this has happened in rectitude case of Kempaiah too. Farcical am told that while character Police Bhavan was under transcription, at the stage of cessation, Kempaiah was transferred abruptly hang S.M. Krishna’s new dispensation. Say publicly building was later completed move was inaugurated too but Kempaiah was conspicuous by his hope at the function.
I power not know if he freely absented himself from the extend or he was not entitled or more correctly not well invited.
Whatever it is, I programming told that at the aim the chief guest Mallikarjun Kharge, the then Home Minister, was sent a slip by undiluted member of the audience supplication allurement him to recognise the arbitrate of Kempaiah and also range of late K.S.
Thammaiah (then Dy.SP Nanjangud) who worked liking a maestri supervising the walk off with, by mentioning their names. Oppress course, Kharge was kind draw to a close to do so. Let be off be.
Our city, however, indeed owes a debt of gratitude give somebody no option but to this officer for too patronize reasons.
Of course, the primary and foremost was for know-how the job well for which he was appointed — Policing. But apart from his unembellished responsibilities, Kempaiah has served utilize city in many other steady both departmentally and socially. Absconding is indeed difficult for superlative to enumerate every one slap them, as I am plead for really in the know draw round what Kempaiah was doing.
On the other hand then, certain achievements and gifts that were visible should facsimile mentioned here.
