With Modi Back, Now Terrorism Will Be Wiped Out From SAARC Area Including Afghanistan
By Colonel Awadhesh Kumar, Special Forces
The Pulwama type attack gave clear indication that even when terrorism was finally waning in Kashmir, the Army and the Security Forces Comprising the Central Police Forces, the Intelligence Agencies and the State Police and Security apparatus could not afford to relax for a single second till total eradication of this scourge from the Valley.
This attack was not a new form of terrorism in Kashmir, as seen by some, but just the result of a better organized, better trained and more discerning terrorist outfits always on the look out of chinks in the armour of ours.
The bomb blasts in a Church and few other places in Sri Lanka shows that the ISIS has once again become active in South Asia and is trying to recover its lost ground. The Sri Lankan Easter bombings were claimed as retaliation to the New Zealand mosque attacks but it remains a fact that a weakened ISIS is viewing the large Muslim population in that country to swell it ranks once again through new recruits. Thereafter ISIS probably plans to expand by infiltrating into the Muslim population of India, Bangladesh and rest of the SAARC countries.
Only now the ISIS announcement of forming a so-called ‘Wilayat Al Hind’ (a fictitious ISIS province in India) and the appointment of Abu Muhammed Al Bengali as a new leader adds meaning to such a move. This announcement gives out the expansion plan of this terrorist out fit into India and Bangladesh. Such bluster of a Jihadi out fit may shake the Europeans or the Americans but it makes no impression on the Indians. India knows how to deal and hunt down such mad dogs and is ready to deal with them. Our Intelligence outfits instead of dismissing such announcements are carefully studying their stated plan and intent. Even Sri Lanka was given enough warning about the impending attack but they chose to ignore it and thus faced its consequences.
Indian now with a more stable government is fully ready to take the battle to the very lair of these terrorists outfits instead of waiting for them to cause damage to India. ISIS radicals from all over the world are welcome to India, for getting dispatched to hell. The global terrorism should know that entire SAARC will soon be out of bounds for them.
The terror groups wrongly believe that it can easily get recruits in India for its brand of radicalization. Though each and every time Indian Muslims have shown and proved that they are Indians first. Young and well informed Muslims youths even from small cities and villages now want development and work opportunities. They are seeing the sincerity of the government in providing these things to all its citizen with prejudice of religion, cast or colour. No wonder in the just concluded general elections, Modi has come out with flying colours by winning a large number of even Muslim votes, earlier reserved for a few Political parties only. ISIS should now know that the Indian schools of Islam cannot be penetrated easily by the terrorists for subversion.
Even in Kashmir where these terrorists backed by separatist elements have been operating since very long, the majority of Kashmiri population are completely fed up of these Pakistani supporters and are looking for peace. The Pulwama attack was part of Jaish-e-Mohammad plan for a more advanced form of asymmetric warfare, which it has learnt from elements within the Pakistan military and its associates in al-Qaeda and ISIS. However the Indian resolve demonstrated by Balakoting of Pakistan has shattered their dream and now they have come to know that their days are numbered.
The biased international media jealous of India emerging as a World Power have played up the imaginary intolerance in the Indian society and so the ISIS probably thinks Indian social fabric will rupture under its onslaught. India Unity in Diversity can withstand any fresh assault as shown in the last two thousand years. India’s vigilant security agencies, a largely law-abiding Muslim population and a strong secular social fabric have hardly allowed global jihadists any prospect of growth. The ISIS in its heart knows that it can spread its menace only in countries like Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya and Somalia. SAARC is simply out of bounds and now soon India will ensure that even Afghanistan will soon be out of bounds …….how ? because India will soon say so.
