Terrorism is a major problem not only in India, but also across the world. The roots of militancy are very deep and is growing day-by-day. While we cannot eliminate terrorism completely, we can restrict it to some extent. Terrorists have no religion nor are they soft-hearted. They don’t even spare children and infants. Militants just want to sow the seeds of fear in people. Since terrorism is a global problem now, every country should come forward and fight against it. We should take a cue from Israel and learn to fight terrorists and prove that we are a strong and vibrating nation and are capable of giving a bloody nose to the enemies of our country and that we cannot take everything lying down and we are not a toothless giant.
Every time a bomb blast takes place, it is always the common man who is injured or dead or face hardships, while our ministers travel in air-conditioned cars and dine in five-star hotels at the expense of tax-payers hard-earned money. Pakistan, since the time of independence has been sponsoring terrorism. It sends terrorists into India for causing heavy destruction to life and property. They have wisely used the youth of Jammu and Kashmir in the name of brotherhood for spreading terrorism. They kill people so barbarously for no reason at all. For preventing terrorist activities, we must live in harmony and remain friendly with our neighbouring countries, especially Pakistan and not fight in the name of religion. Only then our nation will be able to get rid of terrorism and all such corrupt activities. I hope our ministers are reading this.
