    People causing loss to public property deserve it. We all agree. But this is not so simple......

    498 citizens of mostly opposition parties will lose their homes and property. It is sufficient that they are in a demonstration, one can say they instigated the crowd causing damage to public property... will there be a control on who takes decisions ?

    What if during the peaceful demonstration some goonda elements start the trouble and put everyone else in problem ?
    It looks like the end of any kind of demonstration anywhere.

    The govt is absolutely right in punishing those who caused damage to the public property. Because, a protest is supposed to be non-violent.

    Now, who will punish the ministers who don't do their duty ? Those who did not do what they promised the citizens to be doing certain things if voted to power ? Those who allow crimes against women continue unhindered ?

    India wants to know !
