Well that is the second order bit, the first order bit is that Indian populace needs have faith in its Police and Govt but as you said that is not going to happen.

Agreed. Don't want to agree, but reality is not giving me many options. The way to fix this is to make quick public examples of the bad actors.

Truth be told, in the Akku Yadav case, I don't know how I would have reacted if I was there.

Totally agree, I really thought Modi might do something but I was wrong.
