(1.) Criminals and politics which should have been poles apart from each other are now on the two sides of the same coin. Politics have become criminals' paradise. Criminals have built up their nest in politics by virtue of money and muscle power. The trend of criminalization of politics is growing at a fast pace with active connivance of white devils. When the political atmosphere is infected by virulent criminals' bacteria, no antibiotics can decontaminate it. It requires complete sanitization, identification of such unwanted elements, their dislodgement and complete seal of their entry path. Here is a case of politician against whom accusation has been leveled for playing dirty political game for eliminating his political opponent for the sake of power. There is no dearth of such politicians in this Country which is the largest democracy in the world and a home to 1.324 billion people. They can go to any extent and commit any crime leaving political ideology far behind. Such politicians should be changed like diapers which would be a healthy state of affairs for all concerned.
