Terrorism is resorted to by desperate people and has roots in ignorance and injustice. When people with grievances are not listened to and they have no avenue for redressal, they become desperate. This should not be understood to mean justification for terrorism. If terrorism means terrorizing people, then there are so many victims of terrorism and so many actors of terrorism. Examples are the pogrom in Gujrat, naxalism, LTTE, communal riots, demolition of Babri Masjid, Bombay blasts, train blasts, etc.
