Maharashtra’s first woman IPS officer Meeran Borwankar on Wednesday alleged rogue cops in the Indian Police Service were a threat to criminal justice in the country.

A retired DGP, Borwankar, was speaking at an interaction with the media, which was organised jointly by the India International Centre and the Press Club of India.

On UP Chief Minister’s comment on mafia days before the killing of gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother, she said there was nothing wrong if he had passed such a remark. However, the CM should have said the government would finish the mafia while adhering to the Constitution, she said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
