Imagine a software on your system that has been installed, without you having any clue of whats it all about or how it has to be used. And without the ‘help’ menu ! And then being told that the operation of that software is critical to your organisation’s network safety !!
‘Houston, we have a problem’.
Except that this Houston is in Ghatkopar, Mumbai !

Turns out that the station master claims he that hasn’t been educated on how to use the CCTV that has been installed ! ( the news article goes on to state : ‘the purpose of a CCTV is to prevent crime and aid investigations as the data can be collected….). I hope they know !
It turns out, that the station master has FBF ( found by fiddling ) that only three cameras work and one of them is pointed towards the ceiling. Someone or something had to throw up his hands look in the direction of the Gods ! I guess it was this camera’s turn !
I slap an imaginary image, as i type this. This is but an example. And a prevalent way of life in both the government and many corporates too !
‘Equipment’ does not always lead to ‘auto equipping’. It requires effort. In Training & learning!

I like your way of writing but sometimes it bounces above my head because I am not so good in english and nor I want to.

Hi Kavi,
The station masters comment sounds like the security guard in our office building.Every morning he checks under the bonnet and asks me to open the dicky door and uses his magnifying glass to check the car for Bombs. One morning when I was really pressed for time I asked him curtly if he knows what he is looking for? In all honesty he replied he has never seen a bomb in his life and that he would not even recongnize one if I stuck it under my car’s bonnet. I felt so safe that day.

May be all these equipments are turing into things of superstition. Just like hanging a lime/pumpkin over the doorstep to avoid evil…
Good one.
