Mumbai Attack
JVP condemns Mumbai attack
The JVP in a press release yesterday vehemently condemned Wednesday’s
terrorist attack in Mumbai, India and said the mayhem clearly proved
that terrorism can strike anywhere in the world without concern for
country, place or time.
Acts of this nature created an immense social damage, whoever was
behind them or whatever their demands were.
The JVP politburo said world leaders especially those in South Asia
should soon arrive at a collective agreement to counter this common
terrorist threat.
It was the responsibility of all to prevent such unfortunate
incidents in future and defeat terrorism in all its forms.
TULF condemns Mumbai massacre
The Tamil United Liberation Front strongly condemns the most
horrendous and cowardly act of a handful of unscrupulous men who had
derived great pleasure in taking the life of over 130 innocent people
and causing serious injuries to over 350 others, some with their eye
sight or limbs or both lost and many others be-numbed or crippled for
life.
No one on earth will ever want such a thing to happen either to them
or to anyone in their family. Terrorism is now a global nuisance that
should be completely eradicated all over the world. We can’t continue to
be held to ransom by a group of people who are fanatical about something
that they can never achieve and always blood thirsty.
Some of us in our society who do not know the bitter taste of
terrorism go all out to hail this group as heroes and glorify them with
varying tributes. Ironically their wives and children are safe in some
corner of the globe and they are happy that a bomb blasted by a friend
will not harm them.
“We in India and Sri Lanka face this type of menace everyday in some
part of our countries. The incident akin to what happened in Mumbai had
happened in Sri Lanka as well but for different purposes. However
terrorism should be condemned for whatever purpose it is used. Let us
not wait till some mishap falls on us. We all must get-together
irrespective of whether we are Indians or Sri Lankan or to whichever
religion or race we belong to, condemn with one voice the adoption of
terrorist methods as a means of achieving something. We should vouch to
help the authorities to track down the culprits without condoning any
one, involved in any violent activity, however close he may be. If we
are serious about saving the future generation from getting involved in
any violent activity, as a first step all countries should enact
legislation preventing student participation in any form of agitation or
demonstration in which they get the first lesson in terrorism, TULF
President V. Anandasangaree said in a press release. |
