Gangsters welcomed by political parties, given election tickets; police understaffed, without weapons: Allahabad High Court
"All the political parties should sit and together a decision is required to be taken by them that gangsters and criminals will be discouraged in politics," the Court urged.
The Allahabad High Court on Tuesday expressed consternation at the trend of political parties welcoming gangsters and criminals involved in organized crime and painting a Robinhood image of them (Vinay Kumar Tiwari v. State of UP).
