Sometime back I had drawn the attention of the law enforcing agencies to take notice of the indiscriminate aerial firing resorted to by the supporters of the winning politicians during the general elections but none of the violators of this crime seemed to have been proceeded against. I believe we have a law against such aerial firing, but who cares?! Local Bodies elections are in the offing and
