PM SPEAKS UP: He says certain rights and freedom can be derogated to meet the security threat.
New Delhi: On Saturday Prime Minister Manmohan Singh gave an indication of what the UPA Government is planning to do contain the spreading terror in the country.
"In certain circumstances states are both entitles and obliged to take steps that derogate from human right principals, we should not feel discouraged, certain rights and freedom can be derogated from but only to an extent to meet the security threat," says the PM.
This was a statement that came from a desperate Prime Minister whose security apparatus has failed to stop one terror attack another. And for the first time he is hinting that human rights considerations may have to be overlooked to contain terror.
But Manmohan Singh also tempered his statement with a healing touch saying that it has to be taken care that no specific group or section of the society is targetted while fighting terror.
"We must also ensure that no group or section of the society gets targetted â( meaning xtians & moslems-congi-commie vote bank). With regards to Hindus, the majority community, obviously it is free for all to kick, degrade & insult them at any time, any place, by any excuse. These are the bedrock of secularist's-(UPA-United Pirate's Association.) principles -NK in our commitment to fight terrorism," says Manmohan Singh.
It was not human rights alone that the Prime Minister wanted to highlight at the conference of jurists on terrorism and human rights but he made it clear that it was growing Indian economy which was also the target.
"When cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Jaipur are targetted, the target is also at the India's economic crisis," says the PM.
<b>But he also maintained that both the economy and the democracy were powerful enough to absorb these shocks.</b>
