    Expand the jail to such an extent of an industrial area/agricultural farm and employ these thugs so that we don't find scarsity of labour and give their earnings to their families. They don't have proper education to lead their life. No guidance, just go for easy money

    In this case as long as they are caught red handed please don't go to see whether double standard or triple standard. These drug peddlers are injecting living hell to the consumers and to their family. If only it is in my hand I will bury them alive or give them harshest punishment.

    This might be easy earning for them. We have scarcity of unskilled labor in our twin districts. Those who work in coconut garden as manual labor get Rs 400 to 500 daily. It is better these two guys be put in the jail for life with hard work. The money they earn in the jail shall be given to their family on monthly basis.
