    • The Indian Express Tags : Home Minister Shivraj Patil Posted: Monday , Dec 01, 2008 at 0149 hrs

    Dr Singh took the right step of calling an all-party meet over the weekend. This must not be a one-off. This country cannot afford to hurl itself into a general election in the next few months in an atmosphere of divisive politics on issues of national security. This newspaper noted last week that the Mumbai attack could be a definitive one, and that it required extraordinary sanity from our politics. Government and opposition must start giving enough of themselves, not just as a virtuous gesture, but so that they both gain enough space to make a bid for the people’s confidence.

    nothing for people of IndiaBy: HK | 02-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward All this regisnation drama is happening because some westeners are also killed in this attack. Otherwise govt might have taken steps long back whne Delhi happened, when assam happened. Guptaji, since Patil and Maharastra govt is gone I feel so safe! These people are being sacrificed to hide enability of this govt who do not want to deal tough with anything.
    Negligence and punishment to ministersBy: Chandrakant Marathe | 02-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward This is a fit Public Interest Litigation (PIL) case against PM, CM and two home ministers for killing 200 innocent people because of their negligence. Can some one file a charge in the supreme court??
    News editors and TV anchormen's shold resignBy: M Patel | 02-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward Should not fourth estate also be held accountable for their failure to highlight the gravity of terror threat and unfarily demonising anti-terror efforts in some cases?I think the editors and columinist who directly and indirectly committed 'non-violent treason via pen' should also introspect and resign.
    Who's next?By: vivek panday | 01-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward Shekhar,Do you see any leader which can lead India in 21st century? Who has the vision and will to see us through? I do not see anyone capable on the current bench of leaders who has the ability to fight back. The new generation of leaders including Rahul Gandhi has offered nothing to the country. He has only spoken a dew times in the parliament. He has not raised any pressing issue nor fought for any cause. I think the future is bleak and these attacks will continue to happen.
    after patil commentsBy: kd | 01-Dec-2008 Reply | Forward it just goes to show that we are a headless bunch without a leader who can be said to follow in the steps of the great leaders like nehru or gandhi or indira gandhi. the responsibility for the security of the country and its people directly rests on the PM and his ministers . if the security has been breached then the PM must answer the people who have elected him . He should own the moral failure to protect the life and propperty of all the people of India as enshrined in the constitution. You cannot play the diversionary card of saying that the things were worse in the NDA regime. Two wrongs do not make a right.Enogh is enough the people deserve an answer.
