Laws cannot touch the Lawmakers

In Israel, former President Katsav got a jail-term of 6 years for rape.
It is a different story in India, where lawmakers are exempt from the laws !
In April / May 2011, Indians will elect Members of Legislative Assemblies for 5 states.
Will they be any better than the outgoing 813 MLAs , of whom :
 25 % are criminals
 204 have 516 criminal cases pending against them
 83 are facing criminal charges for murder, kidnapping and extortion
 97 are billionaires
 403 did not declare PAN [ Permanent Account Number ] details
( Why file an Income Tax Return ? )
These are findings of National Election Watch ( as reported in DNA, March 13,2011 ).
Democratic elections in India, are a political invention to enable citizens to choose who should swindle / loot / rape / murder them for the next 5 years, without fear of law!
