Criminal Cases against Ministers in Narendra Modi's Current Cabinet (Modi 3.0, as of late 2025)

 Criminal Cases against Ministers in Narendra Modi's Current Cabinet (Modi 3.0, as of late 2025)



Important clarification: "Criminal background" in this context refers to pending criminal cases declared by the ministers in their election affidavits, as analyzed by the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), a non-partisan election watchdog. These are not convictions — none of these ministers have been convicted (as conviction would disqualify them under Indian law). Many cases are political or related to protests, and charges do not imply guilt.

According to the ADR report on the Modi 3.0 cabinet (formed in June 2024, with no major changes reported by December 2025):

  • Out of 71 ministers analyzed (excluding PM Modi, who has no declared cases), 28 (39%) have declared criminal cases against them.
  • Of these, 19 (27%) have declared serious criminal cases (e.g., attempted murder, crimes against women, hate speech).

Specific details highlighted:

  • Attempted murder cases (IPC Section 307): Shantanu Thakur (MoS, Ports, Shipping and Waterways) and Sukanta Majumdar (MoS, Education and Development of North Eastern Region).
  • Cases related to crimes against women: 5 ministers — Bandi Sanjay Kumar (MoS, Home), Shantanu Thakur, Sukanta Majumdar, Suresh Gopi (MoS, Petroleum and Natural Gas, and Tourism), and Jual Oram (Tribal Affairs).
  • Hate speech-related cases: 8 ministers (specific names include senior leaders like Amit Shah and Giriraj Singh in reports).
  • One minister (Bandi Sanjay Kumar) has the highest number of cases (around 42, per some reports).

A full named list of all 28 is not publicly detailed in the summaries, but the ADR bases this on self-sworn affidavits filed with the Election Commission. This pattern of declared cases among politicians is common across parties in India, reflecting broader issues in electoral politics.

For the complete ADR report and detailed affidavits, refer to myneta.info or adrindia.org (data from 2024 Lok Sabha elections and Rajya Sabha members). No significant updates or reshuffles affecting this have been reported as of December 2025.

Dalits Participation in the 1857 Revolt: Mythical Narratives

The Dalits of northern India have an emotional link with the 1857 War of Independence for they believe that it was initiated by them. They claim that the Soldier Revolt by the mostly Dalit Indian soldiers in the British Army that took place in Barrackpore in 1857, snowballed into the War of Independence. In the Majhauwa village of Azamgarh district of UP there are four cemented stones shich are called Shahid Baba by the villagers. The Dalits of this village worship these stones with red powder for their future happiness. On enquiring about the history of these stones, the village school master said that four Chamars of this village laid down their lives during the 1857 rebellion. These four men started appearing in the dreams of the villagers and conveying messages saying that if they prayed to these four martyrs they would all prosper. Since then they have been incarnated as gods in the eyes of the villagers and pray them for happiness and prosperity. These are examples which show how...

Why Modi woried on Rahul Gandhi Foriegn Trip?

Why Modi woried on Rahul Gandhi Foriegn Trip? Modi woried to increasing Ruhul Image on International Panorama and making unessary remarks to tarnish his image.  BJP portrays these tours as "anti-India exercises" rather than legitimate diplomatic or personal visits, demanding explanations from Congress about Gandhi's itinerary and meetings. This fits into a recurring narrative; similar allegations were made about his previous foreign visits, including links to Soros-funded entities involved in "anti-India" activities. In response, Congress leaders like Imran Pratapgarhi have countered that the BJP is obsessing over Gandhi's travels to distract from domestic issues, such as airline disruptions or economic challenges. Overall, the BJP's stance seems driven by political rivalry, aiming to portray Gandhi's actions as unpatriotic to rally domestic support. This is based on public statements and media coverage from the period around his December 2025 German...
