I would agree with Mr Gandhi in that Hindu fundamentalist are dangerous to India
GURGAON, INDIA: I would agree with Mr Gandhi in that Hindu fundamentalist are dangerous to India. And the good thing is that many have indeed been arrested for their actions. Take, for instance, those behind the Samjhota Express blast — they, including serving army officers, were arrested and are in jail. The same goes for the Makkah masjid blast and the one in Malegaon, where activists of right-wing Hindu organisations have been arrested. Even in Gujarat, following the massacre of 2002, several serving police officers were arrested. Many Pakistanis will not like what I will say now but one needs to call a spade a spade.
Pakistan, too, needs to do the same thing as well — its leadership needs to have in a place a policy of zero tolerance against terrorists on its own soil.
