Association for Democratic Reforms Ahmedabad , India GUJARAT ELECTION WATCH (2002) CANDIDATES WITH CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CONTESTING THE 2002 ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS IN GUJARAT 5 December 2002 • Gujarat Election Watch Committee • Association for Democratic Reforms Ahmedabad , India Gujarat Election Watch Committee Press Note on Criminals Contesting Elections December 5, 2002 Law breakers are now law makers. Nearly 140 candidates contesting the Assembly Elections have a criminal record. This is a very large number considering the fact that there are a total of 182 assembly constituencies. Over 60 are from the two major political parties, and the remaining from other parties and Independents. About 100 candidates themselves admit that they face criminal charges in various courts. They were forced to admit this after a Supreme Court judgement on May 2, 2002 in response to a public interest litigation filed by Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), Ahmedabad and a new Ordinance on Electoral Reforms issued in August this year. Consider the two major parties alone. The list includes at least 5 Ministers and several sitting MLAs. At least 9 have murder cases against them under IPC Section 302, 12 have attempt to murder cases under IPC Section 307, 18 have cases for threatening to kill, 3 for rape and kidnap, 26 for other violent crimes, like dacoity, assault, rioting, arson and jail break, and 10 of financial fraud. Most have more than one case against them, and many are habitual offenders with over 10 cases against them. If we add the criminals candidates contesting as independents or from other minor parties, the situation is even more alarming. The law does not prevent them from standing for elections because they are not yet convicted. However cases drag on for years and are sometimes withdrawn or manipulated due to political pressure. Meanwhile the ordinary citizen continues to suffer due to the activities of such elected representatives. This includes grabbing the lion’s share of civil contracts, loans from Cooperative Banks, and kickbacks on other major projects. At the same time, the State’s economy continues to decline due to mismanagement. Gujarat Election Watch released two rounds of quarter page advertisements in over 20 newspapers, mostly in Gujarati, requesting people to send information on criminal activities of sitting MLAs and MPs, those who had lost the last election, and future potential candidates. The response was overwhelming and a very large number of letters were received at Post Bag No.5, Ambavadi Vistar Post Office, Ahmedabad 380015. It is clear that public sentiment is overwhelmingly in favour of a cleaner Government. Unfortunately, the voter is left with little choice since both parties persist in putting up criminals. Information on candidates was also collected from a variety of other sources. As a result of this, 101 candidates were identified. However after detailed scrutiny, the Committee decided to release only 28 of these names. The rest either did not contest or had frivolous and trivial charges against them. In addition to these 28 names, the Committee sent its volunteers to various returning officers and District Election Officers (Collectors) and obtained copies of around 1200 affidavits of candidates. Although the public has a right to obtain this information because of a Government Order issued by the Election Commission, the bureaucracy in many constituencies created obstacles to people seeking this information. Even at present, the Gandhinagar office of the Election Commission is not releasing information to the public but asking them to go to the 182 returning officers. From these affidavits, the Committee has so far identified an additional 94 candidates with criminal records. The process of scrutiny will continue and a second list will be released in a few days. So far, the Committee has identified 34 criminal candidates from the BJP and 29 from the Congress. This works out to about 1 in 6 criminals for both the parties. One party emphasizes patriotism and the other says it is committed to a ‘brashtachar mukt’ Government. Perhaps criminals are the best examples of patriots and honest people these parties could find. This shows the utter contempt they have for the ordinary citizen. Politicians have already stalled the Supreme Court judgement on disclosure of assets and liabilities by promulgating an Ordinance. A Bill has now been introduced in Parliament which is identical to the Ordinance, but has not yet been passed. Legal experts say that the Bill undermines the fundamental right of the voter to know the relevant background of a candidate and might be unconstitutional. Similar Election Watches are now being planned in several other states including Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and West Bengal. A similar exercise was done in Andhra Pradesh a few years ago before the recent Supreme Court Judgement and Ordinance. Voters in Gujarat now have a unique opportunity to show the way for the rest of India. By keeping criminals out of office, they can not only give themselves a clean Government, but also ensure that the State’s economy is restored to its earlier pre-eminent position.

  • Download Liberation July 2021
    COVER STORY JULY 2021 CENTRAL ORGAN OF CPI(ML) Rs. 25 COVER STORY An Engineered and Manufactured ‘Vaccination Record’ On the evening of 21st June, the airwaves were abuzz and the Modi government’s pet anchors were hyperventilating on prime-time television over the ‘record free vaccinations’ of 86 lakhs that were administered on that particular day. Ministers in the Modi Govt lost no time in announcing the record on their social media handles, attributing the numbers to the first day of the Centre taking back charge of Covid vaccinations from the state governments. As night fell and dawn broke, the layers around the propaganda of ‘record free vaccinations’ started to peel off. To begin with the ‘record’ itself was hardly a record. In 1997, 12.7 crore (1270 lakhs) children were given polio vaccine doses in a single day and in 1998, 13.4 crore (1340 lakhs) in a single day. The polio vaccine is an oral one and the covid vaccine has to be administered through an injection, so both are not perfectly comparable, but there is still no doubt that the polio vaccinations on such a huge scale were a challenging achievement recognised around the world. For the Modi Govt to spin 86 lakh Covid vaccines in one day as “unprecedented” was dishonest and purely a PR stunt. As data has emerged it has become clear that this ‘record’ was not ‘natural’ but was engineered and manufactured by the BJP to suit their propaganda. BJP ruled states purposely went slow on vaccinations leading up to 21st June, hoarding up vaccinations so they could show a surge of vaccinations on the 21st.
