Criminals in political system denting the growth

Post independent the political parties were using criminals to turn the voters in their favour, and after 1970 criminals realized that if they could facilitate others to win then why did not win theirself.And they started comming into the active politics.
I am keeping this post for the state UP.
The criminalization of the politics dented the growth of the nation especially in UP as criminals have a great exposure in state politics.If we go into deep we see that every political party more or less has shaken the hands with the criminlas expecting to get a win with their help. The indelible impact UP is going back in economic growth. Look Bihar's economy growing @11.03 % just behind the highest growing economy Gujrat (11.05 %). The figure are for FY 14-05 to 09-10. Criminals are not passionate about development despite they look for their wealth.

Now congress , SP and BJP have washed their hands from them to some extent but they are being adopted by BSP, the criminal Party in the patronage of Ms Mayawati balancing the political spectrum in the state on the same level. At the 2007 election she claimed to provide a crime free state, but having criminals on the board in the government it is not possible. Her Government could be labled as Statue Government.Instead of reformig the UP Police with new equipments like communication devices to each petroling police man, Replacing the oldest Britishers time’s rifle 303 with the new state of art devices like AK 47,56, mouser etc, cyber traing, opening of new Police stations, she is only reforming the land of up by wasting crores of peoples money ,for example: She took land fron the UP jail authority to make it Ambedkar Rally sthal in her previous term. Crores of rupees had been spent, number of Green trees were cut despite being objected by NGOs and Forest Dept.. In her current term that Rally sthal has been destructed and is being rebuilt as a Amedkar Smarak where lot of statues of elephant, and Dalit leaders with the Kanshi Ram and her being installed in the name of beautification, The complete wastage of the peoples hard earn money collected by mean of taxes. I was the spectator of these activities as my home was vey near to that ground.

It is right that in the Lok Sabha election 2009 many candidates of BSP were tainted with criminal records. One of them Dhananjay Singh is known to me as i have done my Graduation , PG and MBA from Lucknow University. He was the abnominable element of the university expelled 2 times from the univ. He is getting the patronage of Ms Mayawati.

i have analysed the reasons behind her being in full majority.
-Playing in the name of Dalit,
-A good mixture of participants from all caste from lower to upper end,
-Obviously Criminal candidates,
and above all these BSP vote base is illitrate in majority,having blind faith on mayawati despite the fact that she did not done any thing for them in great except planting statues.

To remove such criminals and parties patronaging such candidates there is only one way- to make voting compulsory for each individual so that voting could reach to 100 %. Average Voting percent has rarely gone over 50 %. Election commision has also taken good inititaive to elude some of the criminal candidates from contesting. It has to play a greater role to clean the political spectrum from these criminals and ensure the participation of each indian.
Hoping that the project on UIN headed by Mr Nandan Nilekani get completed soon, i know it will take a long time to complete, As UIN has to play a bigger role with the help of increasing penetration of telecommunication and internet. Pepole can cast their vote sitting at their home, office, college, on the way thru UIN.
We are waiting for that day……
