Opinion - Letters to the Editor

Another blast

For a second time in the same month, the Capital has experienced weekend terror, this time in the Mehrauli flower market. Such frequent bomb blasts are indeed alarming. With the Dussera festival fast approaching, it is going to be a real challenge for the police to ensure the safety of the citizens.

Srikanth Kota,

Visakhapatnam Once again the terrorists have struck. If our leaders are helpless and clueless, they should quit honourably. Mere sermonising will not do. And the declaration that the existing laws are enough to tackle terrorism is no longer convincing.

K.R.A. Narasiah,

Chennai

I suppose it is time the Prime Minister realised that there are much more important things to do other than signing the nuclear deal with the U.S. When the government is unable to secure even the Capital, how can it protect the rest of India? Every bomb blast is a slap in the government’s face.

Divya Velayudhan,

Palakkad
