Very well written. I think, we Indians, for too long, have allowed these divisivee forces to commit atrocities against our peace-loving citizens. History is full of invasion and oppression of this great nation by these violent forces. We need to stand up and defend the land and its people. I don't think people at the helm, the shameless politicians, are capable of doing anything in that direction. It's up to people to be more aware of their right to be protected and make these leaders act. We have to take the example of another great nation -USA. We need to have partnership with US in countering terrorism and use their expertise at every level. Public in US is very proactive in demanding better security and Government ably responds to that. Indian leaders have to recognize that. Enough of empty promises. Wouldn't a minister be provided with utmost security if there is a threat against his family? Why not common man?
