Yardsticks........!!!

R vips/vvips above rules?

I support those who have questioned the exemption granted by the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) to spouses of VIPs/VVIPs from pre-embarkation security checks at airports across India.It may be recalled that even the service chiefs were not exempted from it till last year. I fail to understand why there are two sets of rules, one for those categorised as VIPs/VVIPs and another for the rest? Our Constitution has no provision of VIP/VVIP status for anybody. Those holding vulnerable positions may be protected by the state, but in no case should they be above the rule.
