Most lawmakers kin are lawbreakers
Hyderabad: Children of our politicians often think nothing of breaking the law. They are perhaps least concerned about the consequences hoping that the issue will be taken care of by using their politician parents’ clout.
Worse still, recent cases show they do not think twice before riding rough shod over public servants too. With a vigilant media and perhaps because elections are coming up more and more such cases have come up on public domain and the police has been compelled to act on these cases without succumbing to political pressures.
The most recent cases
On Monday morning, Ravi Teja, son of former minister for infrastructure and investments and ports, Ganta Srinivasa Rao, assaulted an APSRTC Pushpak bus conductor in a drunken condition at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport.
Ravi and his friends, who had came to see off someone at the airport, picked up a fight with the conductor after the latter asked him not to create a nuisance in the area. The Cyberabad police acted immediately and arrested the assaulters and sent them to judicial remand.
