In as much as Pakistan is a sovereign nation India too is a sovereign nation and Pakistan has no business to promote terrorists activities on our soil like its audacious attacks on our Parliament in 2001 and 26 November 2008 in Mumbai wherein Pakistani terrorists killed over 166 people, wounded many and caused immense loss of properties.
The word terrorism is a complex term and the five continents of the world nor the United Nations have a legal definition for terrorism. What one country perceives as terror activities to attain freedom of their land, religion or language the other country treat them as terrorist activities. India is a peace loving country and for long has bowed to terrorism from across the border for the sake of peace and goodwill in the sub-continent now it is time to say enough is enough and give a stern warning to Pakistan or terror outfits in that country. Crossing over on to our soil and killing innocent people amounts to trespassing the sovereignty of our land for which India has different options to deal effectively with the perpetrators.
Kashmir has always been the stumbling block between India and Pakistan. This year’s message of the Independence Day in Pakistan has been to attain freedom of Jammu and Kashmir for which our Home Minister Rajnath Singh rightly remarked “No power on earth can take Kashmir from India”. Kashmir has always been an integral part of India from time immemorial. The subject of Kashmir has been deliberated in The United Nations and the Council has made it clear the solution to the Kashmir problem lies within the framework of the Shimla Agreement signed between India and Pakistan by PM Indira Gandhi and PM Zulfikar A. Bhutto in July 1972.
Tempers are running high across the border Kashmiri youths are clashing with Indian security forces. Before the situation goes out of hand it is expected wise sense will prevail and both sides will sit together and hammer out a solution for stable peace in the valley.
