Pushing for clean politics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today asked Home Minister Rajnath Singh and Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad to work out a mechanism to settle criminal and other court cases against politicians within a year.

The directive is in line with Modi's commitment during his election campaign that he will endeavour to see that court cases against politicians are decided within one year. If they are guilty, they should bepunished, if not they should be discharged, he had said.

During the campaign, he had vowed to pursue a zero-tolerance policy on graft if he came to power.

In one of his media interviews, he had also said that the Supreme Court will be requested to take up such cases on a fast-track basis.
