New Delhi, September 09: Former Union Minister Shashi Tharoor Thursday asked all Indians to put up a united fight against terrorism and ensure that the perpetrators of Delhi High Court blast are brought to justice.
“I genuinely believe that all Indians must be united against terrorism… Let us not start dividing ourselves as to who is good and who is bad in fighting terrorism,” Tharoor told PTI on the sidelines of a function at Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts here.
Apparently referring to the BJP which has accused the government of being soft on terror, Tharoor said, “This is not a political issue that one party is soft and the other is not.
We can’t protect every place in this country but we can, I believe, take very effective steps against those who have committed this heinous crime and teach them a lesson.”
Noting that just condemning these acts of terrorism is not enough, Tharoor said the government has to investigate and bring the perpetrators to justice and show to the world that they cannot get away after every attack.
