Views-Ideas-Suggestions on Terrorism

Here are some views that my grandfather penned down in a note titled “Views-Ideas-Suggestions on Terrorism in India”

  1. I feel that our politicians and political parties, along with other Government agencies concerned directly or indirectly with terrorism never took this problem as a serious matter. Unless seriousness is considered at highest levels, all efforts will be wasted.
  2. Also for all attacks of terrorism in the recent past, throughout India, all officials responsible for negligence of basic duty, should be booked after thorough investigations and be punished suitably.They cannot get away scot free. Unless this done, all will take advantage of public short term memory and things will go on as usual.
  3. Any Government in power must understand that security of safety of all citizens of Free India must get top priority. Suitable legislations must be passed in Parliament. The issue of terrorism should cut across all political parties. All opposition parties must cooperate with the Government in power at all costs.
  4. A separate agency or an independent body is required to coordinate between various Central Intelligence Departments and state Home Ministries, Police and Anti-terrorist squads etc. All important ideas and suggestions must be implemented on an urgent basis.
  5. It is high time a solid and fool-proof plan of action be prepared and put in practice at the earliest. People have got the right to know what is being planned and implemented from time to time on such a important national issue. TV Media and newspapers can play a constructive and useful role in creating a sense of confidence among people.
  6. Proper monitoring of all aspects must be on a day-to-day basis, at least in the beginning to create a sense of confidence and security among people.

    Foreign anti terrorists

    Our NSG – undoubtedly a steely force to reckon with – deserves flak for the obtuse time taken in this particular operation. The adroitness of some of Taj’s guests, and their staff – gleams in comparison.

    My suggestion is: Enlist renowned global anti terror paramilitary forces – Israel’s S13, South African/US Special Forces, perhaps, to understand our situation and further enlist, train and guide our NSG (or a separate wing thereof) towards terror combat. At this juncture, most nations would be loath to spurn an opportunity to demonstrate such goodwill.

    Until such time as we can efficiently deploy these forces to tame a terror situation in double quick time, we should not be resilient to outside assistance in any form.
