NEW DELHI: Describing terrorism as a threat to humanity, Vice President Venkaiah Naidu today said the policy of Government should be zero tolerance towards terrorism and corruption.
Speaking after releasing the book ‘Securing India: The Modi Way’ authored by Nitin Gokhale, here, the Vice President said, ”In democracy violence has no place. Bullet cannot bring change where as ballot can. This has been witnessed world over. The policy of Government should be zero tolerance towards terrorism and corruption both will eat away the vitals of our system.”
The Vice President said that the issue of terrorism is at the fore front of Government’s foreign policy world over. He said that we must be firm in maintaining its unity, integrity and internal security. ”Terrorism has no religion; it’s a threat to humanity. It should be curbed. We must be humane and sensitive in our approach while interacting with others but at the same time we must be firm in assuring and maintaining Indians unity, integrity and internal security. If there is tension there can’t be attention towards development, this should bear the basic principle. We have to secure our borders and also assure the internal security so that the Government and the administration can focus on development,” he said. (AGENCIES)
