Comments on: Can India deal with more crimes like the Noida case? http://blogs.reuters.com/india/2008/05/21/can-india-deal-with-more-crimes-like-the-noida-case/ Perspectives on South Asian politics Wed, 12 Jun 2013 10:42:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Raj http://blogs.reuters.com/india/2008/05/21/can-india-deal-with-more-crimes-like-the-noida-case/comment-page-1/#comment-139 Raj Sat, 24 May 2008 03:52:16 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/criticaleye/2008/05/21/can-india-deal-with-more-crimes-like-the-noida-case/#comment-139 India needs to make some radical reforms in its justice system which includes the police and investigative branches. The biggest problem is that the politicians have too much power and thus they abuse it by hiring individuals who should never be in the police dept plus they always interfere in police investigation when it in their interest to cover up. It would be better if the federal Gov makes the police force like the armed forces. Only under the control of (few) federal Gov like the Home/justice Dept. In this way recruitment will only hire the best and there will be minimal or no involvement of corrupt politicians. I also think that India police training is very old and it needs to be updated. What can you expect from the police when they are going around raping children in broad day light ! They have a lot of thugs in the Police force. If India fails to make these much needed overdue reforms it will become like some of the Latin or South American nations. Rich economy and heavy crime. India should learn from Russia's Putin. He used some real good tactics to control serious organized crime in Russia and as a result you see a very progressive Russia today.

Weath disparities are a source of a lot of problems in the Indian system, not least of all crime. Crimes against women are also increasing in part due to the strong implulses projected and provoked by the ridiculous genre of entertainment we call 'Bollywood' and broadcast by all forms of mass media. The inuendos are very palpable, and in stark contrast to the moral trappings of Indian society - clearly causing a tension as is visible in increasing crime. I agree with Mr. Scrutton.

What rubbish Mr. Scrutton! How do you know this has to do with wealth disparities? You said yourself a while earlier that you've "lost count of the number of newspaper stories about suspect maids." My theory is that this has to do with strange social pressures that are a result of 20 years of economic and cultural liberalization... I leave it to you to interpret that. People now aren't the way they used to be 40 years ago. India isn't the sweet naive country it was until the 1970s, and we've all contributed to creating this mess.
