THE LIFE OF A POLICEMAN AT CHECKPOINT

I asked a policeman at the checkpoint: Heard that you earn a lot? A bitter smile came over his face for a moment and then ended. A strange sincerity entered his tone. He said: Sir! I am filling my father's place. My father was guard at this checkpoint to protect you. Instead of stopping at the checkpoint, a gentleman of enemy like you shot my father. My father did not even know who his killers were. He first met the killers. Here he was shot and instead of fleeing, he turned his pistol on the robbers. That’s why he received a full burst of fire. A news story and two condolence statements were published in the newspaper and then I came to the same checkpoint.

Until I go home, my mother and wife keep thinking that I will return alive today or I will be shot by a stranger like my father. My children do not know when they were called orphans.

The soldier stopped breathing and then said in a strange way: Sir! There were many other ways to make money. One day you should stand at the same place, at the same checkpoint and do your duty like me. You may not know how much smoke a soldier puts in his lungs in a day. Maybe you have no idea about this heat and sunshine. Those of you who come in cool cars don't even know how the person who argues with people every two minutes starts to feel dizzy. Even after the Eid prayers, you don't even want to hug us. You just stand in my place for half a day with the feeling that at any moment someone will shoot you. If you get even one hundred thousand rupees for the half day, you will not be willing to do this. Sir! Everyone loves his life, but the story of us (policemen) is different. We leave our families alone to keep your family safe.

Listen! Come to the same checkpoint a few years later. Maybe by then I too will have been killed like my father and my son will be recruited in my place and meet you at the same checkpoint. This is the story of every soldier, but because of a few black sheep, you point fingers at all of us. If you allow me to say so much, there are many blackmailers in your media too. Can I say the same thing to everyone? I can ask you how much money you make. Tell me, Sir!!
