| Furious at being overlooked for the post of Delhi Police Commissioner, Kiran Bedi, the country's first woman IPS officer, said she would fight the ''injustice'' of the appointment of Y S Dadwal who is two years junior to her.
''All options are open,'' she shot back when asked whether she was contemplating taking recourse to legal means.
''I am a person who has always stood up against injustice and I will continue to do so,'' said Bedi.
'Unfair decision'
The displeasure of Bedi, a 1972 batch IPS officer of the union territory cadre, came to the fore after the Union Home Ministry cleared the name of Dadwal, a 1974 batch IPS officer, for the post of Delhi Police Commissioner and sent it to Lt Governor Tejinder Khanna, who issued the order.
The decision was termed by Bedi as ''not fair''.
''It is not that the decision is unfair to an individual. It is not fair to the system,'' said Bedi, currently posted as Director General of the Bureau for Police Research and Development.
She did not rule out the possibility of proceeding on ''protest leave'' to make public her disappointment.
The Magsaysay award winner, who has served with the United Nations and carried out reforms in Tihar Jail, pointed out that she was two years senior to Dadwal, now posted as Special Commissioner in Delhi Police.
