Decency and mutual respect for pluralistic views is missing in many people in the subcontinent. As things will get harsher in neighboring countries, much of these things will continue to happen. How about cancelling bus and train services, and tighter border movements that can contain these things. Home secretary and home minister must resign now!

India has been facing the brunt of terrorist attacks in the recent times for no fault of it's own as it has been a land of peace , reconciliation , patience , trust and faith . The agencies enforcing terror in this holy land of grace and gratitude and pluralism and diversity are perhaps guided by a series of mythical obsessions and lent support from the outside to destabilize a stable country . terrorism is the last thing on it's agenda and to be targeted by certain terrorist outfits in rage and anguish finds no convincing explanation . India may have been a bit complacent and may not have given some befiting replies to the mandarins of terror but it has the capacity to strike back the day it resolves to send people packing . Pakistan or bangladesh have nothing to defend once India decides to strike but it is no USA which can build a ruse in a single day and initiate measures to destroy countries . Those killed were all innocent law abiding citizens and those who killed them are a group of irate lumpens and zealots calling for the whip to be cracked against them . politics apart , terrorism is simply not acceptable to India . India is brave and can resolve it's problems on it's own .
