The drive to clean criminals in politics. The court has done what it can. Now it's up to us.

In recent years the court has progressively passed better and better judgements in favour of clean politics. Unfortunately, the Vikas Dubey encounter case (this video is not on him) shows that gangsters and criminals still have immense control over votes and politics. It's up to the electorate now to see what's best for India in the long run. #criminalsinpolitics #cleanpolitics #lokpal #electoralreform #lokpalbill
