Again the same rhetoric. A rhetoric need to be replied with another rhetoric. Yes, such criminals need to be condemned but it's not the Bihar factor my friend. Such elements are present in almost all states. Look closely, you will find them even in your backyard.
Thanks to media that the image of poor law and order situation in Bihar has been amplified many times. Infact UP, where the law and order situation is even worse, has been ignored at the cost of Bihar. What about Mumbai where underworld call all the shots. The list is perhaps endless.
It's high time we should accept that politician-criminal nexus is a serious malaise nationwide and Bihar is no exception. Ignoring this fact will only allow such nexus to prosper in other states.

agreed that criminal politicians are everywhere, but one does not need to stay in bihar/UP to understand that daily life is completely lawless there. just travel through these areas in a train and it is apparent. biharis/bhaiyyas should not take this as a criticism and argue of "us vs them". they should accept this as constructive criticism and try to influence their brethren back home about the image. also, they should stop creating trouble wherever they go, encroaching on land, driving autos, selling some chaat... etc i have been in 3 states and biharis are coming in their hundreds to all these places. while india is one country, it is sad that a state with such mineral resources should be so poor. IT IS NOT THE MEDIA WHICH IS GIVING THE BIHARI/UP A BAD NAME, IT IS THEY THEMSELVES. SO STOP BLAMING AND HAVE A THINK: WHY NO NEW INDUSTRIES ARE SET UP THERE? WHY IS LAW AND ORDER SO PATHETIC? it will help you only. comparing mumbai with bihar is laughable. you have never been to bombay, i suppose.

"THEY THEMSELVES" ?? really??--in my place a road cudn't be built cos the local goondas wud allow to do so only wen they are paid their quota. in my place industries/trade isn't possible cos again the local criminals want their share. wen i as a common man have nuthin(police/politician etc) on my side..on wat strength do u suggest i fight these criminals. n if i'm not so well-to-do n lets say i'm an unemployed graduate, n the train connectivity is really really pathetic--how do u suggest i get a seat in an express train. m not justifyin things--but still one must realize its not the common man who's erring(mebbe he's got no alternative at times).of course the politicians/criminals are also biharis---but then these are the rotten lot cos of which we are blamed-n for their sake the rest share the bad name--with a bitter pinch of salt--cant help it. i've also been in more than 3 states n i feel the mentality of ppl isn't very different frm biharis--only tht development is so differential tht things which cud be avoided in other places are fought for in bihar n again these are highlighted in media. media for bihar's sake is doin good in highlightin the bad things--mebbe we can expect sum chages in 10 yrs--but THEY THEMSELVES isnt entirely true. we need a lot of education n discipline---but we need sumthing more before tht--for a start sum support frm the politicians to initiate the development---with malice towards all :) madhuker
