Banning PFI is illogic and unconstitutional.   The organisation whch should be banned is RSS which is involved in alsmost all the arson + looting incidents in UP.   UP Police are seen supporting these RSS goondas in looting.   Many RSS goondas in the dress of UP Police took part in looting and putting fire to public + govt property .  But UP Govt is very kind to them and appreciating their goondaism and targetting innocents.   BJP govt is trying to crush the movement of peaceful people by force.
