Text—Although it is true that something is better than nothing but in the case of knowledge, a little of it with a shallow character can be harmful. It leads his small mind into believing that he is the wisest one of the world. So, he becomes boastful and wants every one to worship him. Such characters come generally from the race of women and the class of low birth.
Such persons of little knowledge work their own downfall through pigheadedness, stupid acts, half baked ideas, silly decisions, uneducated judgements, boastful claims and the outrageous statements.

The graph of crime has arisen alarmingly with the rapid urbanisation and growth of metro cities. It is a grave matter of concern for citizens, law enforcement agencies, authorities, politicians, city planners and the government. The news are full of reports of murders, extortions, kidnappings, rapes, eveteasing, drug trafficking, prostitutions, bribery, organised crimes and mob violence. Cars getting stolen are common. The smugglers have many police personnel on their payrolls. Drug abuse is wide spread among the youth. The citizens have restless days and sleepless nights. Everyone feels insecure and vulnerable in presence of anti-social and criminal elements around. The senior citizens are ever in danger of getting killed by their domestic workers. Public bus transport is favourite hunting ground of pick pockets.
The political links of the criminals have complicated the matters. Under the wings and protection of the politicians murderers, smugglers, mafia, rapists, kidnappers, extortionists are operating without any fear of law. The measures need to be taken to curb and eliminate this nexus. Another major factor is inefficient and corrupt police. In some areas the police is itself an organised gang of law breakers and official extortionists. Thus, the picture is dismal. The police, administration and the political leadership is largely to be blamed for the worsening state of law and order. Precious little is being done to deal with the problem. The only hope is in the masses rising up to fight the political patronage of criminals. Then, masses are also to be blamed. They blindly vote for the criminal politicians and the honest candidates get routed. The political parties are left with little option but to give election tickets to dons for their own political survival. The widening rich-poor gap is also responsible for rising crime graph. The poor and unemployed are sometimes forced into the criminal ways. The population explosion is also creating pressures on the opportunities. Thus, rising crimes in cities can not be checked unless a composite plan is drawn out to solve all the related problems which infact is a tall order.
