Pro-active
approach
Sir,
Killing of
pilgrims at Sheshnag, of the poor shepherds at
Chergi and at village Luddar in Shroti Dhar would
have been enough for the Vajpayee government to
act. Firing by militants at Jammu Railway Station
on 7th August and escape of militants has raised
many questions on the sincerity of the government
to protect the human rights of the common man.
Government of India by not ensuring the safety of
the ordinary-poor. backward, innocent and rural
people has been committing great violation of
Human Rights of citizens of India. National Human
rights Commission must take note of it with the
killing of Innocent passengers at Jammu Railway
Station where no security appears to have been
provided to the common citizens. Those at the
helm of affairs must be questioned for their
failure and must be told by the National Human
Rights Commission that they have been kept to
protect the life and property of the common man
and not to Construct Stories after the Killings.
To protect the
common man, VDC and Dhok Defence Committees can
not serve the ultimate purpose and regular forces
must be sent to remote areas and if required the
deficiency in remote areas could be fulfilled by
reducing the forces in the cities and that kept
around the officers and politicians to protect
individuals since in the cities much better means
of communication are available, better and nearby
hospitals are available and so the victims of any
attack can be saved much easily since
establishing contacts is much easier and local
resources are also better. Blood of the poor is
not that cheap, we must realise atleast now.
Enough of blood has been spilled.
When we are so
short of forces and police that we are required
to ask the poor and remote area people to
themselves take to weapons against the militants,
we surely can afford to deploy as a routine 10 to
20 police men to protect even those who have been
employed to protect the members of society.
Before the neglect
creates more of damage. Government of India must
now act as under Adopt pro active total approach
to locate and eliminate the insurgents and their
supporters, the militants, no doubt some innocent
citizens may also be put to inconvenience but in
the national cause, in the cause of humanity and
in the common cause some sacrifice has to be
given.
The movements
across Indian borders and infiltration from
Pakistan side must be fought with armed forces
very strongly since Pakistan has regarded the
acts of militants in Kashmir as well as their
supporters in Pakistan as part of a Bonafide
''freedom'' struggle of ''Kashmiris''. Those in
Pakistan training and motivation insurgents
against India, facilitating the infiltration of
the militants across Indian borders; and
organising training camps for misguided and
innocent Kashmiri youth, and those who are buying
mercenaries from other countries for sending to
India must be hit to finish by any means possible
since Pakistan has refused to cooperate in this
regard. So far, all soft options have failed has
to be kept in mind.
Yours etc...
