Shishir Bhate, I fully agree with you. What you state is desired environment, but for that we need to change the very way our democracy(doesnt mean kill the spirit of our democracy) works. Most our leaders occupy their positions by vritue of how many votes they got not by any technical qualification. Ex. Mr Pranab Mukerji defense minister, does he understand any thig about military strategy? Shiv raj Patil, does he understand how to run internal security? Absolutely NO! rediculous to Hear from MK Narayanan during the last attack that India will send a apt message to PAkis when the time comes.....I think he is waiting for his auspicious moment......may be he should go to a Guruvayoor astroleger to identify this moment........Its high time that we resort to gunship diplomacy.....Lack govt's concern for well being of its citizens, makes me feel less Indian & I am losing my sense of belonging. My anger is not against the terrorist, its against the Govt. because as PAkis they have done their job & we have not done ours. Our policiies are suchexecuted such) bcoz we are self centerd. We are self centered & less Indian bcoz we are so divided on caste,religion,language etc
