42 MLAs who have declared charges of crimes against women, lodged in the
dark underbelly of various legislative assemblies [Source: ADR report.
Click here to access the names of these 42 gentlemen, who happen to be
elected repress-entatives]

• 2 MPs with similar credentials, strut around the hallowed portals of the
Lok Sabha

• 260 candidates with similar charges were given tickets to contest
assembly elections in the last 5 years – Independents [72], INC [26], BJP
[26], BSP [18] and SP [16] were the usual suspects. They never let us down,
these political parties, do they!?

• 40 candidates with similar charges were given tickets to contest the Lok
Sabha elections in 2009.

I'm trying to come up with some ideas for what to do with this data. Even a
really simple visualisation may be useful to start off with. Anyone
interested in helping with scraping please email me (and not the list)

Thanks
Maya
