Letter to Dr. Manmohan Singh

Dear Sir,

SUBJECT: T FOR TERRORISM, E FOR ENOUGH.

We have been extremely grieved by this tragic incident, but grief is not all we need to express. We are an agitated youth, and we demand that serious action be taken against the gross anti-national elements that are plaguing our country. We are absolutely appalled by the current state of affairs and we expect you as our leader to lead the change and dispel future prospects of such an aggravated situation from occurring again. There seems to be little value placed on the civilian's life. An attack as such on the Parliament invited the best of enforcements immediately. But such a calamity is a result of your callousness, sir. 

What good was your Oxford education if you can't use it to solve the country's gravest problems?

How did you get sleep at night, sir, after any of the blasts? You were content with the way security was 'tightened'?

How do you tolerate this? Can you even imagine the plight of these families who have lost loved ones? The ones who lost brave souls who gave up their lives for this?

We understand that you cannot possibly pick up an AK-47 and stand in front of these spots as a security personnel but you CAN form better laws, reform the law enforcement agencies, make the political process more transparent and buck up the intelligence agencies.

Our faith in the entire political process seems to be ebbing away.

With all due respect, we need you to transform the system and arrange for a stricter law enforcement system. You have us to answer to and you need to justify this. How terrorists armed with extensive ammunition marched into our sea-ports and attacked living symbols of our heritage, the Taj, important landmarks and will walk away unharmed and untouched.

Harsh as this may sound, it's time someone asked these questions. We have tolerated ENOUGH, now NO MORE. You have US to answer to. So you better have some answers for our questions, because someone needs to answer them, and who else other than the PM?

Yours truly,

The Youth of India.
