A typical Indian Attitude

I do not know why Indians react like they are treated badly when they go through the security check in the foreign airports or somewhere else. USA security has played a commendable job to prevent any kind of terrorist attack after 09/11. Meera Shankar did not go through any pat down search. It is a normal process of security search in US from which everyone goes through, even its citizens. The Indian Bollywood Superstar Shah Rukh Khan has also objected for questioning in Newark airport in the US. It is a wrong attitude. We must learn what a strict security check means in such an atmosphere of insecurity of terrorist attacks. So we can also avoid the recent blast like Varanasi after 26/11.

Failed Security Network

Varanasi blast is unfortunate but redeeming aspect of this tragedy is that still we can take a sigh of relief that this explosion led to minimal human loss. This scenario would have been so dreadful when unsuspecting people would have caught in a stampede. The terrorists might have expected a greater loss but were unsuccessful. But it is a mere chance. The security agencies had alerted the Indian Govt. against this attach. Even then the terrorist perpetrate this crime. The organisation called Indian Mujahideen has owned the responsibility for this attach. This organisation had already given a threat to the Indian Govt through email sent after the blast in the tourist bus near Jama Masjid, Delhi on 19 September. This is not a subject of a normal concern for a country which is directly under the radar of terrorists that this attack was made even after a threat. The Indian government has failed its fiduciary responsibilities to the people and to the states. The real meaning of a good security we can learn from USA. US intelligence officials tracked suspicious parcel sent from Yemen last month. The parcel was a bomb parcel that cannot be easily detected even through the scanner. It is the vigilance of US security that they found the hidden bomb and saved many lives. About six conspiracy of attacks are failed this year in the USA. The terrorists were even run away after planting bomb in a car to demolish the Times Square in the New York city. But not only they were caught from the airplane going to Dubai, their whole plans of destruction were failed. Indian Government must upgrade and reform its security level. We really don't want to see any kind of human loss again.
