Bangalore Ahemdabad Surat What Next???

The terrorists have become bolder by the day while the govt. is caught napping!!! Two major attacks within 24 hrs and one aborted one in surat just two days later. While the politicians indulge in blame game (Sushma Swaraj of B.J.P. called it a congress conspiracy to take interest from the Cash-for-Votes scam and some congress leaders have demanded Narendra Modi's resignation) and empty statements of horror the terrorists are going scot free. The failure of the intelligence agencies is really acute and the intelligence reports are too vague. We can only guess where the terrorists will strike next. Only way to rectify this glaring flaw is a revamp of our intelligence network. We need a central agency like F.B.I. or K.G.B. to gather intelligence and prevent the attack instead of locking the doors after the horses have fled and spending years in investigating the attack. It is high time we started and Indian Intelligence Service just like I.A.S. or I.P.S. and give it enough powers. The govt. should not be interfering in its functioning and the intelligence posting should be seen as a promotion. To assuage the states who say law and order is the state subject we should amend the constitution to make it a joint subject between state and center and the I.I.S. should be under this schedule
