Chinappa was convicted for torturing his wife for dowry. Satbir was held guilty of practicing untouchability. The court did not allow either of them to contest elections. Does this decision go against the principles of democratic elections?
Answer:
No. It is entirely fair that Chinappa and Satbir were barred from running in elections as a result of the crime they committed. Election participation is prohibited for criminals under the election rules.Hence, it is a fair verdict
