Dude you don't have to open a thread with the thread title showing your personal biases.

Atleast the OP post should be as neutral as possible, you can of course give your views after that.

But changing a title to suit you is simply not done.

------------------------------------------------------------
The election in Uttar Pradesh has 795 candidates with criminal records, which means that out of the 2,195 candidates who contested the election, 35 per cent or more had criminal cases pending against them.

A report combining the candidates who contested in all the phases in Uttar Pradesh has been put out by the Uttar Pradesh Election Watch and the Association for Democratic Reforms. The Samajwadi Party topped the list while the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Congress held the second and third spot respectively in fielding tainted candidates.

Out of these 2,195 candidates analysed by UPEW/ADR, 759 candidates or 35 per cent declared pending criminal cases against them. SP had 199 out of 401 (50 per cent), BJP had 144 out of 397 (36 per cent), INC had 120 out of 354 (34 per cent), BSP had 131 out of 403 (33 per cent), Janata Dal(United) had 46 out of 220 (21 per cent), Peace Party had 55 out of 209 (26 per cent), Apna Dal had 22 out of 76 (29 per cent), Qaumi Ekta Dal had 13 out of 38 (34 per cent), Rashtriya Lok Dal had 16 out of 46 (35 per cent), Bundelkhand Congress had 5 out of 33 (15 per cent) candidates with pending criminal cases.

Himachal Pradesh .... again see how much 'the party with a difference' (BJP) fares !

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Shimla, December 12 Comparatively a state with “clean-politics” and a low crime rate, unlike big-tag states notorious for criminal-politician nexus, the Himachal Pradesh elections this time are not completely free from candidates having a criminal record.
As many as 15 per cent of the candidates out of total 336 contesting the elections have criminal cases pending against them. These include a total of 39 candidates charged with wrongful restraint/confinement and 13 others with cheating and forgery. Fifteen candidates have cases relating to criminal intimidation.

However, after a close scrutiny of the affidavits filed by the candidates before the Election Commission (EC), it came to light that candidates are not involved in any heinous crimes like murder, culpable homicide, rape or robbery.

The only exception is Sada Nand Chauhan, a Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) candidate from Nahan, who has a case of attempt to murder, beside forgery, criminal intimidation, unlawful assembly and death threats against him. Chauhan is a sitting MLA contesting the elections for the third time.

Himachal Pradesh Election Watch, a non-political organisation, which has compiled a report on the background of the candidates to ensure transparency, claims that 37 per cent of the BJP candidates have criminal cases pending against them. Equally vulnerable are candidates belonging to the Left parties and other contesting the elections.

From the Congress, there are only a few candidates facing criminal cases. These include Asha Kumari, a former minister contesting from Banikhet; Sudhir Sharma (Baijnath) in Kangra and Chander Shekhar contesting from Dharampur.

“The cases are only of political nature.These mainly include wrongful restraint, obstruction to public servants from performing their duties, breach of peace, disobedience to the order, criminal intimidation and kidnapping,” said P.R. Ramesh, coordinator of HP Election Watch.

The report, says Ramesh, will be submitted to the Election Commission to ensure greater accountability and transparency in public life. In fact, the organisation, which is affiliated to the Association of Democratic Reforms, had done a similar study in Punjab during the last elections.

Says H.N. Kashyap, a BJP state secretary, “The BJP has not fielded any candidate having a criminal record or criminal history. It was during past five years of the Virbhadra Singh government that cases were slapped against MLAs and partymen for political victimisation. The BJP, on return to power, will withdraw all such cases.” (Double speakers and hypocrites)

Some of the prominent candidates having criminal cases include BJP’s chief ministerial candidate Prem Kumar Dhumal, who faces a case of defamation, obstruction to public servants and disobeying order, and eight former ministers, including J.P. Nadda, Ishwar Dass Dhiman, Roop Singh Thakur, Narinder Bragta, Krishan Kapoor and Rajan Sushant.

Former BJP president and candidate from Shimla Suresh Bhardwaj has two cases of rioting and unlawful assembly against him. Two women candidates — Malvika Pathania and Renu Chadha — contesting from Nurpur and Banikhet, respectively, also have criminal cases pending against them.
