Condemnable
<b>
The terror strikes on consecutive days in two cities, triggering panic of more attacks in other States, are shocking, cowardly and condemnable. </b>The killing of innocent people at will shows the complacence that has crept into our system. The continuing resilience and indomitable spirit of the people are praiseworthy. The entire nation should come forward to counter the menace.

I strongly condemn the terrorist attacks in Bangalore and Ahmedabad. </b>I also feel sad on seeing our political leaders play the blame game after every attack. If this trend continues, I am afraid India will remain a soft target of terrorists.

The claim by the Indian Mujahideen that it set off the blasts in Ahmedabad to avenge the wrongs done to Muslims is shameful. Except in some instances like the Gujarat riots, Muslims have enjoyed freedom and protection in India.</b> We have a judicial system which is capable of punishing those who indulge in crimes. The terrorists forget that it is the community that feels ashamed when terrorists kill innocent people.

Besides leading to the loss of lives and property, bomb blasts also have an impact on the social make-up. As they are perpetrated by individuals claiming to</b> be followers of a particular religion, the people belonging to the community get alienated from society. Communalists get a golden opportunity to widen the social divide.

Terrorism has no caste, creed, community or religion. No politics, no conviction, no vow has a right to destroy an innocent life.</b> Let the people who want to prove a point destroy themselves, not innocent people who want to live. All talk of minorities and majority is repetitive and escapist.
Politicians express their concern for terrorism from the safety of their homes. Leaders of terrorist outfits and their financiers have a good time. The person most affected is the man on the street. It is absolutely saddening to think of children waiting at home for their parents killed in a bomb blast.
