Political will to end terrorism

Politicians allow terrorism

My answer is both yes and no. Yes, becuase we have some politicians who use the word 'terrorism' to terrorise innocent and ignorant citizens to consolidate their vote bank of majority community, but take very little action to curb terrorism.

No, because we also have politicians who in the name of protecting minorities against terrorism follow appeasment policy and in the process unknowingly allow infilteration of terrorists among minorities.

In a nut shell, unless our politicial parties put back their political interests behind and sit together to frame a national policy to tackle terrorism, I can say that they have no serious will power to tackle terrorism in India. All the political parties will continue take shelter in the name of blaming neighbours.
