Beware! Taliban at your doorstep

Pakistan has given up its sovereignty by permitting the imposition of Shariat laws in parts of its troubled Northwest region. This is a victory of sorts for the Taliban.


The day is not faru00a0 when a major part of that country will come under draconian Shariat law. We should heed the looming danger and take preventive action, so our country is not affected.





India needs to wake up. Political parties should give up their vote bank politics. Unless we exercise vigilance, our country is in danger of being swamped by fundamentalists of the Taliban-type. All distinctions of religion, caste and creed should be done away with, and one set of laws should be applicable to all Indian citizens. Will politicians, and all citizens with a vision heed the signs of impending danger and rise to the occasion?
