Handling Terror: Still not a Serious Business ...Contd

Let me not go fanatic by speaking the wrong doings of UPA. Let me do what my Journalistic conscious say: 'to inform the truth.' It happened recently that a list of Naxalites was issued by the Karnataka State Police Department. Within days later some of the names in the list were called back. Premier Kannada news paper, mainly Vijay Karnataka and Hosa Digantha presented their respective readers with a photo which depicted those persona's, removed from the list, with former Naxalites killed in encounter. The state JD(S) Government backed by the BJP kept mum over the concern and did zilch. Why so? That's politics.

No country's politics in the world could be as complex and dirty as one we have in India. The communist who claim to be 'messiahs' of 'downtrodden' and 'poor' themselves slaughtered many in Nandigram (West Bengal), the place where they are being reigned supreme for past 3 decades. Jehadis or Mujahiddins (freedom fighters) of Kashmir, after having slaughtered and driven the Kashmiri Pundits, are now doing their second (similar) act with their own people. BJP which is criticized 'decisively' the Nandigram episode are now all set to do the same act in a

place called 'Nandigudi', a place 60 Kilometers from Bangalore, where 5,000 Hectares of land is being planned to be given to a little known 'Skilled Company'. Will they get back to their consciousness? Don't expect that... there is lot of money in SEZ to be made by our politicians.

You may have been confused over my mentioning of SEZ issue with terror. You must just think as to what would there be a relation between two. Don't you? You should. It's very simple; terrorism thrives at places where there is poverty and unemployment. When a premier company was closed in Kudremukh in Karnataka a major part of 5,000 families were displaced overnight and had no option but to join the Naxalite movement. When Pakistan sponsored terrorism in Kashmir the tourism went into a 'nose dive' and eventually the people dependent on the industry had no option but to bond with Jihadis. By the way a Jihadi is paid 5,000 Rupees a month compared to 4,000 what he may have earned out of living. It is a total myth that the Mujahiddins don't fight for money. Nothing could be a better nonsense.

Each SEZ displaces, at least, 5000 families consisting of minimum 300,000 people, and employs just 10% of the displaced people. And the employed ones are those who are educated and qualified, what about those who aren't qualified? Would they have any better option than being a Naxalite or Terrorist? There are approximately 700 SEZ in pipeline all over India which means more than 3,50,00,000 people are going to loose not just their jobs but homes - giving a wonderful enrollment opportunities to the anti-national organization. It's high time we understand that 'Terrorism' is not as much a 'Philosophical' problem, as much as it has to do with 'Economical'.

Till date southern Indian states were little affected by terror but now, watch out, it's just going change for shoddier, mind you. It was John F Kenned who once said 'If those who are privileged could save the few who are oppressed, then there exists very bleak chance to for the privileged to save their privilege.'
