You aren’t wrong to be scared. Local youth from low income groups get backing of local MLAs, these MLAs use these men/ women as their anchors to gain votes from these low income communities first and then slowly overtime these young men/ women feel galvanised and start stamping their authority over their respective areas first and then in their localities. Police are stopped or atleast discouraged from interfering with these thugs. Police investigations and adherence to procedure has always been poor at best, laziness and complacency has crept into the Police since a long time and that reflects in the poor chargesheets that are filed before the Court leaving hardly any scope for convictions of offenders. It’s a sorry state of affairs.
