New Delhi must combat terrorism

‘Triple efforts’
MUMBAI, the commercial and financial center in India, recently witnessed three terrorist bombings that killed 21 innocent people and injured several others. The bombings were carried out in crowded areas to derail development and peaceful efforts in the region.


The series of major attacks on India’s urban area like Delhi, Pune, Varanasi, Bangalore and Mumbai, from 2008 to 2011 should serve as a wake-up call for the nation to triple its efforts in combating terrorism.

It is necessary to invest more on counterterrorism training programs and intelligence systems to maintain peace and stability in the densely populated country, which is considered an emerging super power due to its rapid economic growth.

The international community should be more vigilant, unite in condemning atrocious acts and fully support India in its bid to combat terrorism.

The East and the West must be strongly committed to the global counterterrorism efforts to prevent the recurrence of tragic attacks.

Moreover, the second India-US strategic dialogue, peaceful talks in the region, and constructive efforts between India and Pakistan should not be disrupted, considering their historic relations as neighbors. Both nations and their leaderships must work together, along with the international community, to maintain security and stability in one of the important parts of the world.Email: Labeed.abdal@gmail.com
