In addition to its multifarious duties, including VIP protection, Punjab Police is engaged these duties in a stupendous task - of decoding a suspected spy pigeon that has purportedly flown in from Pakistan. What made the Punjab intelligence agencies sit up and take notice was the fact that under its wings, words "Shakargarh tehsil" and "Narowal district" were scrawled. Trust the Punjab Police to undertake ingenuity of the rare kind. Even though an X-ray which was conducted had yielded nothing, a DSP is keeping vigil over the pigeon and its diet is being monitored. It has sought advice of the sleuths of the Intelligence Bureau and Border Security Force and may even seek help of the Interpol to solve the mystery! As expected, all this only shows lack of basic intelligence on the part of the police. If the x-ray has shown no chip on the pigeon, what harm can it possibly cause? In today's world and age of google maps, do we still need to use pigeons for intelligence? One only hopes the Punjab Police would not put it through its customary "third degree" interrogation or allowing it to "escape". In all possibility, it may well be an innocent bird which is a part of the collection of a bird watcher.
