Goonda
"Goonda" is a term used in the Indian subcontinent for a hired criminal. It is both a colloquial term and defined and used in laws, generally referred to as Goonda Acts. Etymology The word possibly comes from the Hindi word ''guṇḍā'' ( hi, गुंडा, "rascal"). There is also the identically-spelled Marathi word with a similar meaning, attested as early as the 17th century, and possibly ultimately having Dravidian roots. Another theory suggests that it originates from the English word "goon". However, the first English-language appearance of "goonda" (in British newspapers of the 1920s, with the spelling "goondah") predates the use of "goon" to mean criminal, a semantic change which seems to go back only as far as the 1930s comic strip character Alice the Goon. Related terms are ''goonda-gardi'' and ''gundai'', roughly meaning ''bully-boy tactics'', ''gang violence'' or ''gang warfare''. Another is ''goonda tax'', referring to bribes or money extorted in a protection ...
