Terrorism – A proposal to Curb the Menace
The sudden increase of acts of terrorism with particular reference to the incidents in May 2011 & PIDC house attack on Nov. 11, 2010 in Karachi, highlights the importance of preventive measures to curb the menace of terrorism, which is causing severe losses to men, material and reputation of the country.
In the cases of terrorist attacks on the GHQ, PIDC house & Pakistan Navy air base it was reported that the gang of attackers was residing in a rented house for wuite some time, in an area not very far away from their targets. It was also reported that the neighbors of these houses were although, suspicious of these tenants yet; they kept quiet and did not tip area police about their apprehensions.
Under the circumstances there is a dire need for motivating general public, to remain extra -vigilant in playing their role of defending the motherland, by involvement of entire population of the country, to look out for the stay and suspicious activities of the terrorist, in their near vicinity.
As such, In order to make the stay of terrorists at any place almost impossible, it is proposed to actively involve the entire population to look out & hunt them. This objective can be easily achieved, by the announcement of the Government, that a reward of Rs. 50 millions shall be paid to any person, who informs the Police about the terrorist staying in a house, hostel, hotel, rest house or any such place.
If the war against terror is to be won quickly, the entire population of the country have to be geared up and involved in the task of watch and vigilence.
Yes, people should be made aware. I have attended a security training workshop and it has benefited me on certain levels. Media should make shows that showcase how to prevent and look-out and report if they see anything suspicious. Reward would most certainly help.
@SanaaKhalid, thanks for your very pragmatic comments. You are also 1st to comment on this vital topic.
sir public is freaked in by the way media showing us !after seeing any news my parents wouldnt allow me to go oustide nd to rush bwt the includies of society !Media is prevailing the biggest terror !a news shown to us in different polishing ways i jst wanna say what is the problem here!lool in Mumbai attacks indian government banned to cast news after a few days at this issue !so my request is to promote confidence in public by media who has created a lot of terror!Regards
Everything can be done, only and only if the police and our politicians weren’t corrupt. The reward you speak of will be stolen by the police or not be given by the said government and nothing will be done. They might even jail the poor person who has come forward instead for knowing too much.
This is a very sad but true fact about our keepers of law and the guardians of our country.
@Shamila, many thanks for your very pragmatic comments.
Nayyar Sb
I really appreciate your glorious efforts which the Government of Pakistan has accepted your proposal and announced it through media after some modifications. In this way you are contributing NOT ONLY FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN BUT ALSO FOR the people of Pakistan who has been suffering since last few years .
This bloodshed has ruined away the whole cycle of life in such a way no one knows what will he come across in next step ?, However uncertainty is prevailing at every nook and corner of the country.
Resultantly, our economic development programs have been suppressed due to this uncertain life threats.
Some one says ‘ringing bells are signs of alertness, it is up to whom, How he listen with full consciousness or not.
