Youth choosing life of crime due to poverty, unemployment

Shankarlal Raikwar from Lalitpur in Uttar Pradesh says thanks to pervading unemployment and poverty youth in the area is choosing a dark future of gun and violence. He says police has arrested two boys with local pistols. But the bigger question is where does these guns come from? Where are they manufactured? Police does some small actions like this from time to time of arresting few boys for few days but they do nothing for finding a long term solution. Shankar Ji can be reached at 09838358532
