Where was the IB?

Aren't they suppose to intelligent enough to stop these kinds of activities even before they happen? IB is busy pandering to political masters, what India needs is a strong internal intelligence agency without political interference. People are all calmouring for POTA but that all after the fact.

would yo know what is going on in the brain of a person sitting silently minding his/her own business next to you.
Or would any one know what is in the bag that you are carrying,without stopping and searching you.
There is a solution to the bags make them transparent and any thing carried must not be wrapped in opaque paper but should be in a transparent bag.
That way every one will see what is inside of the bag, but the solution is not follproof, how do one will know that the item inside the transparent bag is not a bomb.
we cant make every thing transparent.
We cant ask people to wear transparent Clothes so that nothing can be hidden under the garment.
(Though perverts will love such an order).
So the solution is already half defeated.
next comes the brain which can not be made transparent even if it was a possibility there is no way to make thoughts known to an other person.
Now comes your question.
Aren't they suppose to intelligent enough to stop these kinds of activities even before they happen?
Yes they are intelligent but intelligent person depends on leads,once a the intelligent person gets a clue he/she can work out the rest of equation and solve the problem, but to start one must have a sniff of the lead.With out a clue as to what is brewing in the area it is not just difficult but near impossible to suss out what is happening.
Every person of the country is a policeman, weather he/she wears a uniform or not, just keep your ears open and eyes peeled,

CONT:-
if you hear or see any thing that you as a citizen think is not right inform the authorities,you may save a carnage like this to happen.
It may not stop the it happening but it might help and save few lives.
Do as we do in UK set up a neighbor hood watch, and report any thing unusual happening in your area.
Just follow the simple rules.
Don't touch any thing that does not belong to you.
Don't look after the luggage of any one regardlaees un less the person is well known to you.
Repotrt all abondend bags don't pick them up they could be booby traped.
just don't be greeddy never assume it will not blow up and it is safe to pick it may not be Not even a childs toy.
Bombers have beeknow to put explosives in most expensive and most cheapes valueless items.
Stay away report and be safe.
This does not prevet any attack but it does help.
with all this in mind and people being more carfull 50% of the bombing in Uk has been foiled and made safe.

India is a country of more than 100 crores and there are lakhs of traitors living all over, It is nearly impossible to caught these kind of sleeper cells who live among common people. There are places in India like parts of Hyderabad old city where no govt official can go and if he dares he will be beaten up by the locals. Remember a IB official was beaten up in alighad muslim university when he went there for investigation. when the Godra train burning accused was arrested in Godra, the local people attacked the police and released him. when a suspect was arrested in hyderabad old city, Burkha clad women attacked the police.Untill these traitors are kicked out of the country these things will happen.

How will you identify the traitors? Smarter intelligence gathering is a better way to deal with things rather than getting emotional. Sometimes digging deeper into the root causes will also help. As long as we have corruption in the country, people can get away with anything.
