Perhaps India can learn from Colombo. There have been successful crackdowns on terror networks thanks to vigilant people including Three wheeler drivers, commuters, alert neighbours etc. In Busses & Trains people have voluntarily refrain from putting their bags on racks and keep there luggage near them so unattended parcels can be easily detected. There are civil security groups set out by the police who keep watchful eye on suspicious persons and parcels. Places where the terrorists can hide boms are cleaned/removed by local government authorities. Few months ago bus bombings were a frequent incident in Colombo & suburbs. Thanks to above measures terrorists have failed to carryout any attacks for a long period now. It's amazing how 8 or 17 boms can go off simultaneouly and still there's noone giving conclusive evidence about the perpetrators. Wake up India! Your govt./police alone cannot save you from terrorism.
