Pahalgam Terrorist Attack
In the Baisaran Valley of Pahalgam, a tourist spot known as India's mini Switzerland, a horrific terrorist attack occurred, claiming the lives of at least 26 people and injuring 17. The victims included tourists from various places, including a Muslim mule handler, a Christian, and many Hindus, as well as officers from the IAF, IB, and Navy. Eyewitness accounts reveal that the terrorists targeted individuals based on their religion, asking them to recite Islamic verses and shooting those who couldn't. The terror group TRF, a shadow group of Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility for the attack.
Intelligence Failure and Parallels to Pulwama
Initial investigations suggest that 4-6 terrorists, including two Kashmiri youths who had gone to Pakistan in 2018, carried out the attack. Prior intelligence inputs indicated that terrorists were scoping out hotels in early April, raising questions about why the attack wasn't prevented. This incident is reminiscent of the Pulwama attack, where despite having multiple intelligence inputs warning of a potential attack, it still occurred. The lack of accountability and the failure to address security lapses are major concerns.
Accountability and Government Response
The responsibility for the country's security lies with the elected government, yet questions about how foreign infiltrators manage to enter Indian territories remain unanswered. Despite Prime Minister Modi's claims that demonetization would break the back of terrorism, numerous terrorist attacks have occurred since then. The media's lack of courage to question the government and the shift in focus towards pro-government narratives are also criticized. The resignations of Home Minister Shivraj Patil and Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh after the 26/11 Mumbai attacks are cited as examples of accountability in a functioning democracy, which seems to be lacking in the current scenario.
Security Shortcomings and VIP Treatment
The Indian Army is facing a shortage of over 100,000 personnel, and there are plans to further reduce troop strength to cut salary and pension expenses. This shortage raises concerns about the security of the citizens, as highlighted by the sister of a deceased Navy officer who lamented the lack of timely assistance. While VIPs like billionaire Mukesh Ambani and his family receive Z-plus security cover with NSG commandos, the average citizens are left vulnerable. The government's prioritization of VIP security over the safety of common people is questioned.
Divisive Rhetoric and the Need for Unity
The video condemns the divisive rhetoric employed by political entities like BJP, who are accused of spreading religious hatred and creating fear among Hindus and Muslims. The agenda of terrorists is to break apart the country by inciting religious conflict, and the BJP is allegedly following the same agenda. The importance of unity and condemning all forms of violence, whether driven by religion, caste, or language, is emphasized. The video concludes by urging viewers to reject poisonous propaganda and demand that criminal and terror elements be punished, while the rest of the citizens stay together to usher in peace and progress.
