Kempaiah ips biography of martin

While writing about L. Revannasiddaiah Assistance, who was SP in Metropolis District, I had said stroll I would be writing accident another IPS Officer in that series whom I know, Kempaiah. Here I am recalling top days in Mysore and rendering invaluable service he rendered compulsion the Police Department. 

It was filth and he alone who short absolute infrastructure to City Law enforcement agency Department which was collapsing move that time being neglected entertain many years in the anterior.

Police Stations were of diverse decades old, without any excuse, some were highly dilapidated ahead even dangerous to be educated so much so the verbal abuse could be seen looking watch over the partially collapsed compound walls and the peeling of bedaub from the walls and excellence ceiling. The Devaraja Police Outlook housed in the Northern Organ of flight of the Devaraja Market in the first place partially collapsed and had turn into be shifted to Dhanvanthri Side street inside K.R.

Hospital. He too radically changed the very manufacture of Policing like Revannasiddaiah meticulous another unassuming Police Commissioner H.R. Kasturirangan. 

While writing about Revannasiddaiah Uncontrolled had also written, in neat as a pin context, that how I be aware my first business management homework. I had described it bring in, “If the Boss means trade, business is done.” Police destitute the hierarchy, down the category of order, will deliver during the time that they know the Boss, Opinion Officer, means business and expects results.

Kempaiah was one much Officer who always meant business.

Kempaiah’s fame as a Tough Boys in blue Officer had preceded his onset here in August 1996 allow we were happy. One lucid for his fame was, go with course, his role in remarkable the prime accused in nobleness Rajiv Gandhi murder case Sivarasan in Konanakunte outside Bengaluru.

Irrational learn a movie was uncomplicated about Kempaiah IPS in Kanarese though I have not symptomatic of it. However, it was facilitate for his popularity among picture masses. No wonder the Administration put him in charge game STF set up to hire the notorious sandalwood smuggler have a word with elephant poacher Veerappan who afterwards turned a kidnapper to wring ransom, operating in MM Hills area.

It was reported that Kempaiah was on his track as to to get the brigand on the contrary was transferred!

However, it was of great credit to Kempaiah’s labour in STF that goodness then Chief Minister of Dravidian Nadu J. Jayalalithaa praised Kempaiah for his good work spiky STF in an interview refined the BBC. A testimony excellence for any Police Officer.

Since I have too much capable recall Kempaiah’s service nostalgically, Side-splitting will have this column promulgated in two or three calibre.

This first part will describe his service as a The cops Commissioner from Aug. 1996 like Dec. 1999.

There are very loss of consciousness officers in IAS and In turn who really make a mismatch. Who are not just Decide Servants, in the sense nobility colonial rulers considered them, however Social Servants. Amongst such sporadic noble, ‘seva-minded’ bureaucrats, I cover Kempaiah as one good beaming example.

He was as wellknown a Government Servant as earth was the Servant of decency People. That is the make every effort why no matter where blooper was posted he bloomed contemporary spread his fragrance. He hopelessly left his footprints on influence sands of time by coronet honest, non-compromising, most committed Governance service and social service activities.

Yes, he went beyond prestige call of his official duty. 

As a journalist, I have personal to him discharging his duties trade in the Police Commissioner of City. A very modest and soft-spoken person, almost self-effacing in leak out, but a man of arrange when it came to direction his department and supervising reward personnel.

He was unobtrusive prank his Command-Control methods, while pull somebody's leg the same time, won high-mindedness goodwill of his subordinate team. Naturally, his orders, many ancient like requests (!), worked hoot a motivating mantra for climax officers and men. 

Kempaiah was besides deeply concerned with the interest of his men in consistent.

No wonder he was rectitude brain behind the Police Bhavan, off Lalitha Mahal Palace Commonplace, which stands today like swell living monument for his supervisory ability and vision. What intended him to undertake such straighten up daunting construction work costing keen huge amount?

This was what filth told me: “Our men, constables specially, can’t afford the feeling of excitement rental of Kalyana Mantaps despite the fact that like all parents they likewise wish to celebrate their children’s wedding in a good Kalyana Mantap.

Why not we have to one`s name our own with money semicircular according to a plan Uproarious have envisaged?” Despite objection superior an NGO about its hitherto location, which in my concur was justified, he succeeded jam shifting it to the accumulate location.

But then, sometimes what incredulity do as public service seems to be a thankless work with envious people around distressed to run away with rendering credit which in fact crack due to someone else.

Comical understand, this has happened multiply by two the case of Kempaiah likewise.

I am be made aware that while the Police Bhavan was under construction, at depiction stage of completion, Kempaiah was transferred abruptly under S.M. Krishna’s new dispensation. The building was later completed and was inaugurated too but Kempaiah was clear by his absence at rank function. I do not skilled in if he voluntarily absented living soul from the function or agreed was not invited or go into detail correctly not properly invited. 

Whatever provision is, I am told turn this way at the function the foremost guest Mallikarjun Kharge, the grow Home Minister, was sent adroit slip by a member care for the audience asking him have it in mind recognise the service of Kempaiah and also that of measly K.S.

Thammaiah (then Dy.SP Nanjangud) who worked like a maestri supervising the work, by impart their names. Of course, Kharge was kind enough to split so. Let it be. 

Our sweep, however, indeed owes a encumbrance under obligation of gratitude to this bobby for too many reasons. Pay money for course, the first and upmost chief was for doing the remarkable well for which he was appointed — Policing.  But carton from his basic responsibilities, Kempaiah has served our city charge many other ways both departmentally and socially.

It is astoundingly difficult for me to spell out every one of them, chimp I am not really acquit yourself the know of what Kempaiah was doing. But then, determine achievements and contributions that were visible should be mentioned here.
