In America, 4/20 (April 20th) is a day celebrated by pot smokers all over. A National Marijuana day if you will started back in the 70s by a group of high school kids and took on a whole new life and meaning since then.
420 in India has a whole different meaning though. It was what we called people who were either low grade scamsters or slightly off their rockers. The term came from section 420 of the Indian Penal code that calls for imprisonment of upto 7 years for anyone caught cheating someone off their property – epitomized in Raj Kapoor’s 1955 classic film Shree 420.
