Bhubaneswar(Orissa): Only Lord Jagannath can save from the terror strike in any major locations of the eastern pars of Orissa. Thanks to the callous attitude of Police Headquarters in Cuttack and the Home Department in State Capital.
Besides Temple City, ITR Chandipur, Puri, one of the four Dhams in Hindu religion, makes for another one for the terror perpetrators. What steps the State taken to fight back?
In its e-mail, the Indian Mujahideen, an affiliated body of Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) made copious mention of 'anti-Christian' activities in Orissa's Kandhamal district. It had also talked about Hindu organisations targeting minorities including Muslims in Gujurat and elsewhere.
Shocking fact was that, the Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, who holds the Home Portfolio, is now a days busy in election campaign to retain his supremacy in the coming Civic polls but he has no time to convey a meeting to review the situation.
Union Home Ministry has already alerted all States following serial blasts in National Capital, but no sign of alert has been witnessed since past two days in any part of the State. Though security was tightened in communal violence hit Kandhamal but no special measures have been taken to prevent a terror attack in other parts of the State.
Home Secretary TK Mishra , DGP Gopal Chandra Nanda and Intelligence chief Manmohan Praharaj are busying in discussion but no steps have been taken to fight back terrorists. These three elite class IAS and IPS officers are more or less busy to satisfy MHA over Kandhamal crisis as 10 Janpath is closing monitoring the situation. Who cares for common people? Asked a resident.
Since last two days, there were no reports of massive checking at all major locations of the twin cities of Cuttack and Bhubaneswar. Only the police preferred to use sniffer dogs to detect explosive materials at Jagannath Temple in Puri while the same was not followed either at Biju Patnaik Air Port or at City Railway Station. "We have alerted all our forces," these are few traditional sound bites of Home Secretary and DGP but alert means nothing.
City DCP Himanshu K Lal was spotted on Saturday night at City Railway Station few minutes after the serial blasts rocked New Delhi but after that he preferred to monitor the business from his officer.
The so-called smart Commissioner of Police, Bijay Kumar Sharma also did nothing for the twin cities. Vital top cop posts like DCP (Crime) and DCP (Security) are lying vacant. Specialized units like Bomb Disposal Squad, Quick Reaction Team, Technical Interceptors and Cyber Forensics are not available.
