Need of the hour

Fighting against terror is not an easy job. It requires patience, skill, good intelligence network, equipments and above all cooperation for all. But it’s a pity that some nations are just providing lip services rather than showing enough sincerity to combat the greatest danger the mankind is facing today. Nations surrounding India are the worst offenders. Pakistan is only acting under pressure from United States of America. Despite being the breeding ground of terror, Pakistan is playing a double game to say the least. Same is the case with Bangladesh. For years, India is urging them to destroy the camps of the militant outfits active in the North-Eastern region, from is soil. But the country in response to India’s demand has always tried to put India on the dock. Bangladesh has taken no step worthwhile to help India in bringing back peace the North-Eastern region. Myanmar is another country where the militants active in the North-East have bases. Notwithstanding the support provided by India to that country, the military junta of Myanmar has o far restrained themselves from taking any action. Even India’s request of prior information before any operations against the militants went unheeded. Elaborating on the military junta’s recent assurance to the delegation of India’s Home Ministry to Myanmar of which he was a part, the DGAR stated, “We are optimistic of seeing a virtual crackdown by Myanmar since the Myanmar officials said that it is not their policy to encourage Indian insurgents to operate from its soil” “They have assured us of taking all steps to curb the activities of the insurgent groups operating against Indian interest,” added the DGAR. It may be remembered that the NSCN (IM), the ULFA and the Manipur-based underground outfits have been using the Kachin hill tracts and the Naga-inhabited areas in Myanmar as training camps for their cadres. But assurances are not enough to fight terrorism. No sooner the nations surrounding India will realize the fact India’s fight against terror will become easier.
