Extreme action by extremists

Few of our elected elite, who were travelling by road, were shot by extremists, in the most violent manner in the tribal area of Bastar(a remote jungle which had witnessed this massacre). When people’s will is ignored, when people feel that governance is working toward excluding them from growth, they resort to violence and murder. This is the last course they resort to. Generally people go on and on tolerating, and hope things will become better. Now they can take it no more forever. When the cavalcade was going past rural area, it was intercepted by masked extremists who had shot all accompanying them also.Twenty seven persons were killed. They had heard the police coordinating the passage of the cavalcade, and knew the exact location.This is not how to show one's protest. This is cruel and it will invite punishment.One of the politician whom they had wanted to murder had survived and is in hospital right now recovering. In struggle for development, while dreaming about progress in their lands, local people felt left out and were immersed in poverty. It is this helplessness among people that generates the hatred for the elected elite.  And so the shoot out was planned. Now we will be hunting for these extremists who had killed elected elite. Such extreme behaviour has to be controlled. It is sad that we will be spending time, effort and money for preserving peace than on development progress. It is these extreme people who worry the nation. We do not have terrorism, but extreme poverty and inequality is giving rise to terrorism. Future job opportunities are in the police cadres, where opportunities are brighter. Terrorism has got out hand and killing spree has started.We thought we were safe from terrorism, we are not.
