Bangalore Couples Turn to Cops for Counseling

As the three stars with a red-and-blue ribbon on his shoulder strap will tell you, M.L. Purushotham is a police inspector. But here’s his unofficial job description: redeemer of relationships and savior of marriages.

The description fits not just the inspector at the Yeshwantpur police station in west Bangalore but many of his fellow police officers in the city.

Meet a couple whose liaison the police inspector tried to salvage. She is from the eastern state of Orissa, and he from southern Tamil Nadu, both in their 20s, well-educated and working for different multinationals. The woman walked into the police station first.
