well, what do you expect?Criminals with 20-30 police cases including rape,looting,murder,corruption charges among others are the ones entering the parliament. The govt of the day is scared to enact a law that anyone with a police case cannot be eligible for parliament because it is fraught with dangers-half the govt along with its allies would be in jail and same goes for opposition.Also, it is extremely easy to frame someone and file a police case in India. Also, since our great judicial process believes that a man is innocent till proven guilty, all these criminals are given a free hand to contest elections, threaten other candidates, rule by proxy/gunpower/musclepower/money power and subvert the law to suit themselves and their near and dear ones. This is politics...everything is fair game and is the refuge of scoulderals..not just here but in the whole world. politicians across the world are scoulderals...the americans, british, australians etc look good in their suits and look dignified and polished, ours believe in taking the law onto their own hands by fighting pitched battles inside the assembly/parliament, shouting/staging walkouts, gheraoing the hapless speaker. What can be done? lots actually.Make sure you vote.Make sure leaders come from your community by the strength of their convictions,integrity and decisions and not because they are an MP/Minister/Leader's son/daughter/Son in law/nephew etc. Leadership is not genetic, it has to be inculcated.
