Corruption, secularism & terrorism - II

At the outset, this is NOT about me. :))

This is a cover story...no names shall be taken. Just nicknames. Decipher, if you can.

Two States of India. One sitting CM was arrested & sent to jail. One sitting CM's link with terrorists funding her is now coming to light. Don't you think these two CMs should be sent to jail - along with their 'partners in crime'? Well, we are heading there...inch by inch.

You see, it's always tough to bring a total change in the mindset of people. Until that is not done, we can't root out both corruption & terrorism. As a first step, a mindset is being brought out in the minds of people - even without help of media. These steps may not look big today, but may find a logic in days to come. Watch out.

Imagine. We tell Pakistan sponsoring terrorism in India from its soil. But, what if, a sitting CM is using terrorism as a tool to topple a National Government in a neighboring country? My dear friend Vicky Nanjappa's here will give you some idea. But, question prevailed in my mind, for quite sometime, on the actions of the CM and found no logic. Until recently another dear friend privy to information hinted to me saying, "Yaar, in the coming months, you would see a few CMs go. Almost all of them, somewhere or other related to terrorism." Friend was, clueless. How can CMs indulge / patron terrorism? He started to dig out more on the CMs. And, at times poking my dear friend Vicky also to make sure, if he's on correct path. Kyun Vicky? :))

Then, one fine day, a cold call by a friend to a friend in Tamil Nadu. Discussed with him on state of affairs. Initially, he was reluctant. Later on, he started to share a few information on how Jihadis are running a parallel government in India. And, gave inputs on their support systems. Yes, information was passed on to relevant people - happy that action is being taken. But, all these action ended up with a soft "shut up" earlier. Police's hands were tied in several key points of action - despite information. Some even privately confessed, their helplessness. So, what could one do, than to wait?

Dawn broke! Finally! It's only after the government at the Centre changed, did find some results. Few were arrested in South India & Sri Lanka. My friends were still not satisfied. Some of the terrorists were directly funded / aided & abetted by foreign powers. Made my friends wonder how deep these folks have penetrated! They made a resolution that would work more to root out these folks.

What else they found? Quite stunningly, found a link between Naxals, journos & a few high flying politicians. What?? Yup. "Hot pursuit" is on. They are already facing heat, and they know about it.

It was not without a reason, that PM had invited Heads of States of neighbors for his swearing-in ceremony. There is a huge game plan behind that. Not many understand our PM. He is moving his coins towards his target via unpredictable resources / ways. You can almost not predict him. A few in a South Asian Think Tank actually has given up reasons to predict his next move - after getting it wrong all the time. Not once they got it right. And, this group has Men & Women considered cream of the analysis profession. No, am not joking. Ask them privately, they would confess.

Shall narrate more, what I heard from my friend, on my third post on this series. Stay tuned.

(P.S: Should confess here, our Intelligence Bureau & Police Force have some of the best breed of IPS officers. They only need a go ahead, and would do anything for the Nation. No force could stop - above / under the ground, you know what I mean? All, for the Flag. For that one magic word, "India". One officer, over a cup of hot chai on a winter noon said, "Yaar, tu chinta mat kar. Agar pehle marenge toh hum marenge..." It still resonates in my ears.)
