Anti-Terrorism-Action Plan

Subsequent to Bombay Terrorist attack,it is time that academic discussion stopped and concrete action is taken.
To begin with we may initiate the following.

1.If we have exact intel on terror camps inside Pakistan strike them a la Entebbe.
Stop pussyfooting with diplomacy and US and international opinion.
2.Seal the border with Pakistan and Bangladesh.
3.Freeze all CBMS on hold.Stop all trade with Pakistan.
4.Create centralised command structure for terror operations.No other agency is to attempt this operation.
5.Let professional bureaucrats and defence people act,not waiting for clearance from political leadership.If interference from them is noticed, come public through media.
6.Let media cover only the essential of terror attack as a sideline.Do not provide publicity to Terrorists.
7.Stop divulging the background of suspected terrorists,including their religious background.
8.Issue national ID.
9.Use Postmen to verify addresses.
10.The security checks are perfunctory.Supervise.
11. Let one member of the public take over one street/apartment block.Keep the centralised Command /police on any thing extraordinary.
12.Do away with agents for passports.Handle directly.
13.Banks to map pattern of spending and intimate deviation.
14.SIM cards,especially for Prepaid. on production of ID with comments from police.
15.Internet booking for travel to be verified by banks before issue of tickets.
16.Arrest mercilessly politicians who sow the seeds of separatism and religious bigotry.

Above all let each of us be on the look out.If we find anything suspicious,do not wait for official action.Take people and tackle.
Mere solidarity meetings and talking shop will yield nothing.
