AN OPEN LETTER TO HOME MINISTER P.CHIDAMBARAM
Dear Mr.Chidambaram,
India is burning, the scourge of terrorism is wreaking havoc, threatening to tear the country asunder, traitors like Raj Thackeray and Chandrashekhar Rao are running parallel governments with their distinct divisive agendas, naxalite and maoist cadres are running amok, cross border terrorism has the run of the land within the Kashmir Valley yet you chose to remain a mere bystander.
You assumed charged promising the sun, moon and earth, nay the dawning of a new era free from the demons of corruption, favouritism and nepotism, within the police, intelligence and paramilitary forces and cadres, made a time bound commitment regarding the implementation of the long delayed police reforms, dissemination and discussion of the Sri Krishna committee report pertaining to the aftermath of the Mumbai 26/11 attacks and initiating the era of modernisation within the police and paramilitary forces alas these and many others have continued to remain mere promises.
The recent Varanasi terror strike has once again underlined India’s sheer lack of collective will and sheer ineptitude towards nipping the heinous designs of terrorists and their indigenous and foreign sponsors, a eleven month infant and sixty year old senior citizen lost their lives due to the sheer indifference and callousness shown towards the due discharge of their duties by the forces entrusted with the onerous responsibility of protecting the life and limb of the common man.
The blame game is afoot once again, the concerned state government blames the centre for its abject failure to provide precise, concise, clear and time bound intelligence inputs pertaining to the designs of the terrorists and turning a blind eye towards its oft repeated demand for adequate funds to train and modernise the state police force thereby enabling it to act as a suitable deterrent.
The centre on its part blames the state government for its failure to act upon adequate intelligence inputs, lethargy, somnambulism and insomnia towards the maintenance of law and order within its boundaries, lax and Nero like attitude towards the sanitisation and combing of the ghats that were targeted by terrorists on two earlier occasions in 2005 and 2007 thereby causing a massive loss of innocent lives and paranoia about the abject security failures in the minds of the denizens of this hallowed city i.e. Benares or Varanasi as it has come to be known.
Your dilly dallying attitude towards the initiation of sedition and treason proceedings against the likes of Raj, Uddhav and Bal Thackeray, P.Chandrashekhar Rao, Arundhati Roy, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and other separatist elements has seen a quantum leap in their highly desirable and divisive piccadilloes, utterances and theatrics which continue to threaten the unity, integrity, ethos and secular fibre of this hallowed land.
Respected Home Minister the hour of preaching, sermonising and chastising is well past us the need of the hour is for a concerted effort by both the centre and states towards ridding us of this scourge once and for all, the common man is more than willing to be your foot soldier in this epic battle but are you willing to summon up the will and fortitude to tackle the terrorist, separatist and Maoist menaces?
STOP SERMONISING AND START ACTING BEFORE THE SCEPTRE OF TERRORISM ANNIHILATES THE BLESSED VIRTUES OF INNOCENCE, TRUST, FAITH AND GOODWILL TOWARDS MANKIND.
WE THE CITIZENS OF INDIA SOLEMNLY AFFIRM THAT WE SHALL ACT AS THE EYES AND EARS OF OUR INTELLIGENCE FORCES PROMPTLY REPORT ANY UNSEEMLY ACTIVITY OR INCIDENT TO THE CONCERNED AUTHORITIES, ISOLATE,INDEMNIFY AND IDENTIFY ANY INDIVIDUAL, GROUP OR ORGANISATION THAT THREATENS THE UNITY, INTEGRITY AND SECULAR FIBRE OF OUR GLORIOUS MOTHERLAND. ARE YOU WILLING TO EMPOWER US AND CREATE A CONDUCIVE ATMOSPHERE, Mr. HOME MINISTER.
YOURS FAITHFULLY,
A CONCERNED INDIAN.
