Terrorism and India
This post comes amidst the terrorist attack on Mumbai taking a toll of more than a hundred lives. The terrorist have been killing innocents every now and then and the Indian government has proved to be good for nothing in tackling this issue.
They do not realise how much harm are they causing to the nation by soft-pedalling the issue and even endorsing them. The terrorists could have done the country good by killing these politicians who have no concern for ordinary lives.
The information agency has failed miserably to say the least. No place in the country is safe. People don't know whether they'll be breathing the next moment. Even tourists who used to throng the country with a perception of it being a lively, hospitable and beautiful country are now discouraged by the endless series of such terror strikes.
While on one hand, this youngest democracy aspires to become a powerful nation and influence international issues by seeking a permanent seat in UNSC, its failure in handling domestic matters raise doubts about its credibility.
I could just hope that truth dawns over the eyes of the people and they rise above petty issues of caste, creed, religion or region and aspire to work towards making India a secure, prospering, habitable democracy.

Seriously dude... It's totally senseless now. And the audacity, to march into heavily populated public areas armed with AK-47s, grenades and what-not... It is too depressing to talk about!
ReplyDeleteIt just shows the callous attitude of our politicians that seem to be spreading to our security forces and the common people.The inability to save our people and guests is mockery of our tradion of 'atithi devo bhava'. Let's see how much more pain we Indians can bear !
