Terrorism has today become the latest threat to world peace and particularly to India's national security. Terrorists are improving their sophistication and abilities in all aspects of their operation and support. Weapon technology has become more increasingly available, and the purchasing power of terrorist organisations is on the rise with the ready availability of both technology and trained personnel to operate it. The terrorists are not only threatening the ideals of democracy and freedom but also causing a serious challenge to the existence, progress and development of mankind. There is need for stringent provision for prevention of terrorism. In a country like India if a law regarding terrorism is enacted it should be made so stringent that the culprit be brought to book and does not go scot-free just because of loopholes or lacunas. The need for special laws to combat terrorism cannot be under estimated, actually the problem lies with the implementation of laws and the abuse of powers conferred on the authorities under the special laws. |
