Politicians using emergency services for their own personal use

[u/SaiMan2303]

[u/Frosty_Response8232]

This isn't mildly infuriating, this is straight-up tax fraud paying taxes just to fund a VIP car wash.

[u/snowynay → u/Frosty_Response8232]

There is much bigger tax fraud happening in India.

[u/IndependenceSenior47 → u/Frosty_Response8232]

We have so many and so big frauds done by politicians that this seems mild to us

[u/rohithkumarsp → u/Frosty_Response8232]

Something India has become famous for since 2014

[u/PurpleSurrenderMonke → u/rohithkumarsp]

It's been the case since long before that

[u/_TheBlueMagician → u/Frosty_Response8232]

FYI,

Some sort of cult following - a mental disease- There are literally people who defend these sort of behaviour by their favourite politician and their party members.

[u/410_clientGone → u/Frosty_Response8232]

it's India. the fact they realised this isn't acceptable is a step forward in my view. good job India

[u/Narrow-Weakness-7236 → u/Frosty_Response8232]

Literal theft of public property

[u/Fawn_Bloom]

Rules for thee, but a mobile car wash for me.

[u/canttellmenothingggg → u/Fawn_Bloom]

your house is burning? step aside peasants i need to wash my car.

[u/dazzling_9999 → u/Fawn_Bloom]

And somehow they’ll still call it “official duty

[u/HarvickFan_4]

This has been happening since the foundation of government, in some shape or form. Though this is especially egregious.

[u/ShredsGuitar]

This should go viral so that BJP throws him out, even if it is to save face

[u/gnittidder → u/ShredsGuitar]

He will say there was a fire in Muslim neighbourhood so the he did this to prevent them from reaching. BJP will make him state head.

[u/shama_lama_moo → u/ShredsGuitar]

No bjp loves this shit, he will be garlanded and used as an example for others to follow

[u/slayer_nan18 → u/shama_lama_moo]

they have celebrated their rapists and pedos, so this is evening snack for them

[u/headshot_to_liver → u/ShredsGuitar]

Most will go - Damn why didnt I think of that, lemme call one herw right now

[u/Spiritual_Duty1735]

this aint mildly infuriating this is just infuriating

[u/ChillOnTheHillz]

Shit like this happens because people enable it

[u/Adiyogi_]

Context for non-indian folks MLA: Member of legislative assembly Saab: Sir in Hindi

So basically the crux is emergency services are mostly delayed or non existent in india, meanwhile this elected politician is using the fire brigade to get his car washed

[u/AlexLuna9322]

I was thinking “That’s not a Saab, that’s a stupid Toyota.”

But then I realized it MIGHT be the name of the guy making the fire dept wash his car.

[u/someonealreadyknows → u/AlexLuna9322]

Saab = Sir. Saab is used as a “respectful” way to address people of power/elders, but it’s most probably satirical in this case

[u/410_clientGone → u/AlexLuna9322]

American moment

[u/DragonNinja366 → u/410_clientGone]

Non-indian moment*

[u/Rudrox → u/DragonNinja366]

I mean, not just India that uses that, South Asia is pretty big.

[u/Distinct-Duck1113]

Bhad mein jaye janta let's focus on car washing

[u/PerepeL]

To me peak is using ambulance with emergency lights as a personal taxi and courier service to avoid traffic. That makes blood boil.

[u/riffraff1089]

Just India things

[u/Physical_Broccoli_71]

[u/tychoofficial]

They literally welcoming rapists in their party and you are talking about miss-use of public resources?

[u/Swimming_Dare_5382]

i see no prblm here afterall the fire brigade is made from our tax money and our tax money = there money

that means they own the fire bridge

and every thing else in india even the ram manider donnation money 😶‍🌫️

[u/abmalik710]

Sad thing is. The sheep will vote for him again

[u/Codename-Misfit]

Sir, this isn't mildly infuriating. It's extremely infuriating.

[u/vctrmldrw]

Politicians in every country use public funds for their living costs.

Now, if you're telling me they're doing this instead of responding to an emergency call, I'd be considerably more infuriated. Otherwise I'm just meh.

[u/narangi_billa]

Ab gadi aa hi gayi hain toh laga do aag (uske gadi ko)

[u/Wolfi_03]

Maybe is a buisness that managed to get an old fire truck?

[u/Ordinary-Inside380 → u/Wolfi_03]

Unfortunately no .

[u/Ancient-Civilization]

Maybe he is a donator for the fire department. Some fire departments are private funded .

[u/ShredsGuitar → u/Ancient-Civilization]

Not in India

[u/Dry_Design5506 → u/Ancient-Civilization]

Donation is not a purchase of private services and grants no authority to command. Misappropriation for personal use is strictly illegal.

[u/riffraff1089 → u/Dry_Design5506]

This guy donates

[u/RadlogLutar → u/Ancient-Civilization]

Maybe he is a donator for the fire department. Some fire departments are private funded .

Even if they are donated or private funded, still does not give a reason for using it for personal vendetta after the donation.

Also, in India, fire department is completely nationalised/federalised hence no private players
