    Good job police, 'car - Drugs, revolver confiscated, one arrested' . The name of the arrested mmm, Okay the 'common factor' stands out. These elements had immunity when Congress was ruling in State as they qualified for 'bhagyas' and treated as 'mugda alpasankyatharu' . Mangalore was a happy resting ground for Kerala criminals with local support. Lets all pray and hope the new Govt does not etertain this and such elements are dealt with an Iron hand.

    Anyone found with drugs or weapons or anyone seen doing moral policing should be eliminated immediately.
    We want to build this country of Ghandhiji 's policy nd not any terror group.

    In this country even after doing terror activities like bomb explosion, one can become MP!
    Even after giving hate speeches ( to rape woman of a particular community) one can become CM.
    If one gives hate speeches quite often, he will get ministerial berth. I believe our youth are motivated to become criminals, as bright future is waiting for them.

    Self driven taxis like the one in picture, vehicles without numberplates, "registered "number plates should be checked. I had complained about a Honda brio , production of which had stopped but was moving with a "registered" number plate in my area with photograph to the PC in person about 2 months ago but no action was taken!

    The latest trend here is that habitual offenders e.g for drug trafficking are not convicted but paraded! It is a non bailable offence so ideally there can't be " habitual" offenders in the first place!

    Absolutely. India badly in need of Sharia law at this movement to curb down crimes. Rapes, lynchings, corruption, scams increasing day by day under the noses of country's lawmakers.

    Most crimes on Earth, are commited under Islamic nations !!! They are all ruled by kings, dictators or despots !!!! To sustain their will, they seek support n guidance of their faith, to crush all rebellion !!!! rape and kill, are their tools to perpetuate their iron rule, over their citizens... India is a democratic n secular republic... These brutal, medieval, barbaric, ideologies, find no acceptance, in our multi cultural society.... There are many elements, organizations, who wish to break our nation...... They have not succeeded in the past and will not, suceed in the future !!!!!!!

    Can we not generalize, talk facts and figures!! I am just comparing one Islamic country with our own country, and I can give similar statistics for other Islamic countries too.
    In Burglaries our beloved country democratic republic of India ranked @8 and /Saudi Arabia an Islamic nation ranked at 0.1 which is 80 times more than Saudi Arabia.
    Crime level rating: Saudi Arabia 23.41, and India 47.61, two times more than Saudi Arabia.
    Murder rate India 2.08, Saudi Arabia 0.9, murder rate per million: India-34.24, and Saudi Arabia 10.23, Finally India is the most dangerous country in the world to be a woman because of the high risk of sexual violence and slave labor! I believe expats working in other Gulf countries will have similar opinion but FROGS inside the well, who have never been out of the well, scream, and show fingers on others.
