It feels illegal to live in India if we are not rich or have power....

Court's logic: Factory fitted tints do not increase crimes but retrofitted films with better visibility will add to crimes. Retrofitted shades increase crimes, factory fitted shades do not add to the crimes. I wonder how the courts found this logical.

@@carswithkaran As these OEM accessories are available for shopping via the manufacturer's own website, doesn't it imply that these accessories are homologated/approved by the company?
