摘要:Despite the truth of the above statement, the number of terrorist attacks in the World today increase every day. We in India, particularly face the brunt of such violent attacks, the most recent being the tragic Assam bomb attacks which have left hundreds dead, injured or bereaved. India is a complex society with diverse cultures, religions, ethnic groups and economic levels. This is our strength. Unfortunately, however, the multifaceted nature of our Nation has also been our bane. The reasons are many. There are many groups within our Country who feel wronged, marginalised or exploited. Thus, we have ongoing terrorism in large areas–right from Jammu & Kashmir (J&K) in the North to some of the States in the Northeast, to large swathes of the tribal belts of Andhra Pradesh (AP), Chhatisgarh, Jharkhand, and Orissa. We also have Islamic fundamentalist groups supported by the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) and Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) carrying out terrorist attacks all over the Country.
