Terro of Terror

the recent terror strikes once again showes how the terrorists and their networks have become so robust that they are able to resurface gain and again. the dispensation with all its rhetoric and vows, takes oath to prevent such cowardly acts whenever these happen. Whether ongoing debate over the need of a stringent act or a distinct separate federal agency to curb the menace, the terrorist have defied all the measures taken by the governmnet. Though, as per the claims, the governemnt and the law enforcement agencies have said that they have succeeded in dismantling the sleeper cells and terror modules operating across the country but the recurrence of the acts say the reverse. After every terror strike, as we see and listen to the statements of the establishment assisted ny our law enforcers, we think that and hope that this will never happen. But for those especially the journalists like me it only turns out to be a mirage. The vested inteterests who always prowl for such atmnosphere leave no stone unturned to cash in on the charged situation. India is the biggest victim of terror. See what happened in the past six months or so? Blast after blast. Earlier, in the words of seasoned journalist and noted author, it used to be riot after riot. But now it seems that the vested interests have found a new tool of divide and rule. they always try and succeed to some extent to get a mileage fron these incidences. A while ago CNN IBN broadcated an opinion poll that has refuted the ongoing debate over the polarisdation of different communities especially Hindus and Muslims. As many as 66 per cent Hindus say that they find no reasons in refusing a house for a Muslim. A roughly 25 per cent said that are losing their trust on muslims. But still more than 50 per cent have trust in Muslims. 81 per cent of Muslims trust their Hinudu brothers. the similar poll tries to know the opinion of the people on who is better in tackling the terro? Whether its UPA, NDA or Both have failed? 26 per cent believed that UPA is better and it has curbed the menace while 28 per cent gave the erstwhile NDA an upper hand in tackling these acts of terror. Forget the figures. Lets find some solutions or at leastuggest some conctrete measures so that the terror of terro is routed out of the country.
1) Set up a fact finding team. First we need to find out who are behind these? What are their motives etc.
2) Who are the gainers and losers at the same times?
3) Why we face back to back terro attacks that has damaged our country and left it bleeding.?
4) Do we really need stringent anti terror laws or are the existing ones sufficeint for them?
5) What if there is not a single federal gency like that one in United States of America?
6) can such federal agency put an end to these terror of terror?
7) Or are we faulting somewhere. Quite lucidly have we not cracked down on the real culprits and only zeroing on the innocents? If this is no the case then why terro is resurfacing?
8) Can we ever overpower the enemies of our country without an inclusive fight against terrorism that will involve people from everu walk, caste, creed and religion? Isn't it posible?

Answering these questions is not as difficult as it may sound. But there are some lapses which we can not avoid, that will amount to another lapse. Our Prime Minsiter has also acknowledged that there are some lapses. But only acceding to the reality won't dismantle the terror and its network. We need to huddle together to end the terror of the teror.
