A 15 minute story
I went to Chandni Chawk to replace a dvd that I purchased a week ago. I appeared before the seller, who was an around 17 year old boy. After a minute he paid attention to my speech. Then he took me to a permanent dvd selling shop to test my dvd. The moment I entered into the shop he introduced me with a mid-aged person saying “Meet my brother, one of the hit listed criminals of Kolkata”. I stunned on such an introduction. After few seconds I guessed the reason. I think he wanted to force me not to replace this dvd. As per him the dvd that he sold to me was good enough, therefore he was not interested to replace it with another new dvd. After testing my dvd with a brand dvd player he strengthen his proclamation. Alright! No problem.
After coming out of the shop I told him few things: “Firstly you respect in imposing the criminal activities. And the people like me respect to the civilian society. You are proud to be a criminal; I’m proud to be a computer engineer, that’s what I’m in fact. Don’t show this king of bullshit passion. Respect to someone who works for the society, who works for the nation, who fights against crimes and try to abolish it from the country, who keeps working on overnights to protect your life, who devotes himself to get people united within his country, and who saves your life in sacrificing his own life. And one more thing, I stay in such an area which has got a crime belt too. So don’t teach me again what a crime and a criminal are.”
He replied “you don’t look like a computer engineer”. He had no point other than it.

Enough is enough!
Indian government has decided to take steps against the recent terrorist attack on country’s most important commercial hub Mumbai.
India has demanded that Pakistan extradite 20 terror suspects, believed to include Lakhvi, Azhar and Hafiz Mohammed Saeed, LeT’s founder. That demand, however, was rejected categorically by Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister. “The arrests are being made for our own investigations. Even if allegations are proved against any suspect, he will not be handed over to India,” he said. “We will proceed against those arrested under Pakistani laws.” That’s what I have collected from a media.
Now some questions have risen in my mind.
No.1: Is this a way of reducing future terrorist attacks on India’s nation? If yes, then how? Alright now I’m coming into the crux of my point. Suppose Pakistan would agree to hand them over to India Government. They would be taken under police custody. Judiciary branch would be formed. Few of them might be sentences to death. Rest would be pushed to the prison. Now the next episode would come into the picture. Another incidence like Kandahar would repeat. Some innocents would hold hostage in receiving these prisoners back. The government again would be forced to hand them over to the terrorist band only to secure the release of the hostages. Meanwhile, some innocents would be killed by them………….enough is enough. The government should immediately stop playing this well-known game.
No.2: Being agreed with the point that the terrorists are continuously using Pakistan’s land for terrorist installation or training camp we should make sure one thing whether any terrorist activity are using our country’s land for the same purpose or not; whether any Indian citizen are instigating, facilitating, financing, encouraging or tolerating terrorist activities and to take appropriate practical measures to ensure that their respective territories are used for the same purpose or not. We should find out these culprits first. Then we should concentrate with others territories.
Our delay will give rise to the terrorist on repeating this kind of condemned activity again and again. The period of thinking has gone away. Only the thing which is left is to take immediate action by the state so that only the terrorist can cost for it.

Survive Hindustan
Of late an ad is being shown in television on the publicity of Bharti Airtel. It’s a series of shots accompanied by the following script: “1500 years ago, an Indian taught the world how to count [Aryabhatta].The father of surgery. Also Indian [Sushruta]. It was an Indian who invented wireless communication [Jagdish Bose]. 90% of the world’s computers run on a chip, made by an Indian [Vinod Dham]. One man fought a war without fighting. He too was Indian [Mahatma Gandhi]. Just imagine what a billion of us can do. Together. When you stand for what you believe in, you can change the world. Proud to be Indian……………” With these I’m appending one sentence: it’s more than billion of us who are being threaten and killed everyday by several terrorist activities; it’s a billion of us who are unable to set a strong self defense, a bulwark against these internationally approved condemned activities. We are the innocent Indian. It's our shame!
Really we can’t? Yes we are the Indian who can sell our country to others in appetite of money. We are so much thirsty of money. That’s why we are so much corrupted. Democracy has got a different meaning in virtue of corruption. We do politics to save our own ace. We are too much thirsty to capture the thrown even after passing through 60 years of our independence.
We can’t be united altogether anymore to give a combined fight against this attack? Sorry! I’ve skipped one step. We need this against our internal corruption first. Then only we can think of fighting against terrorism that strikes to our nation so frequently. We need a government who will sign to take an immediate revenge on that. The government who has that guts should only be elected. Else a day will come when people will take weapons into their arms for their self-defense. Offense is the best defense. We will prove it true. Remember we are the billion in number.
