Loss of innocent lives: When will it stop
The Pune blast has again left a strong imprint in the minds of people. With blasts being carried out anywhere, anytime in India, no Indian feels safe. Can we put an end to this, is the question that we need to ask ourselves.
THE BLAST which occurred on February 13 in Pune, yet again shook the foundations of Indian intelligence and security forces. The wounds of the Mumbai blasts which had yet not healed were again exacerbated by this seemingly brazen act. This is the second time that foreigners were targeted by the terrorists, which definitely is a cause of concern for us. The notion of "Atithi Devo Bhava”, which is a part of our Indian culture and tradition, has yet again been shattered by some fanatics. This definitely will have some far-reaching impacts not only on the influx of foreign visitors in the country but also on India’s image as a safe haven for tourists.Again, this poses the same commonplace questions i.e. how safe are we in our own country? How are these people going to benefit by shedding innocent blood? Should we accept it as a fact that this is going to continue and sit quietly?
What makes people commit such heinous crimes? People who commit such offences in the name of God and religion do not understand that God Himself doesn’t approve of this. Its heart wrenching to imagine what the families of those innocent people who have been killed in these blasts, and similar other blasts, must have gone through.
We cannot allow such things to happen to us. If America can wage a war against terrorism after a single incident, then why can’t we. Given the fact that India is fast becoming a super power, thanks to its hard working and diligent population, is it not the duty of its government to protect us and take stern action against the people responsible. People who have been caught in similar incidents have yet to be punished thanks to the snail-paced Indian judiciary system. What precedent are we going to set, if we let this happen?
This calls for action on the part of the Indian government rather than musing over the how, what and when.
