crime and punishment

Today the auto drivers are off the roads . They are protesting against the steep increase in the fines to be imposed for traffic violations. The traffic police of Hyderabad have adjusted for inflation and have decreed that jumping red light, which used to cost Rs.200, will now cost Rs 1000, drunken driving will attract larger fines.
Next all murderers are planning to go on strike............culpable homicide should merit a punishment of no more than 20 days in jail and the All India Union of Bank Robbers say they must be let off with a week in prison.
India is a democratic country. We all have the right to commit offences with impunity.
