Mission 272 - politics in INDIA

Mission 272 :
16th “LOKHSABHA” ELCTION :2014 : spewing venom and seeking revenge,
people spreading such hatred through their speeches. As personal attacks and communal polarization turn convenient campaign tools, United we fall? , Time to Define the Line Between Defamatory and Inflammatory,Language no bar for star politicians, The war of words,,website spews venom ,
 the humorous quote : the word 'politics' is derived from the word 'poly', meaning 'many', and the word 'ticks', meaning 'blood sucking parasites'. 
There is one more paradox about Indian democracy that we all need to ponder over. That while the Masoods and Varuns, or the Pravin Togadias and Asaduddin Owaisis, Amit Shah, Thackerays,salman khursid ,Azamkhan ,Nitin Gadkari,Varungandhi, Beniprasad Varma, Baba ramdev the so called ‘religious leaders’ ,, , the list is long,can continue to spew venom with impunity, ordinary citizens are increasingly being targeted by the police for the exercise of ordinary speech. 
It is feared that the exchange of statements might lead to inciting of violence and cause trouble in the elections.
The electoral battle, the most among states in India — has turned increasingly vicious, with high-pitched, vitriolic words and even expletives being hurled by rival politicians against each other. The scathing attack also includes badle ki aag (fire of revenge), maut ka saudagar (merchant of death), boti-boti kar doonga (cut into pieces), khooni panja (blood stained hand), and insaaniyat ka qatil (killer of humanity).
