    The terrorists are always terrorists .Killing of innocent men ,women and children may not be justified by the name of any religion, ideology or any things. We don’t know what is the thinking of central government about the terrorist activities in my west Bengal? At present we are surprisd to see that a little part of Bengal still under a terrorist group. A failure landmine attack on Buddhadev Bhattacharya (Chief minister of west Bengal) at salboni/Midnapur/West bengal, and after arrest of a most wanted notorious terrorist/Militant “Sasadhar”(The main culprit of the landmine attack), his brother “Chakradhar” captured some villages at state border area. This is not a tribal agitation. Having with modern arm and ammunition, this is new types of kidnapping/high jacking/ Blackmailing are being carried out by the name of agitation in west Bengal. Some terrorist group declared themselves as CPI (Maoists) (and supported by Mamata Banerjee’s party, Sonia Gandhi’s party and their allies ),captured some tribal or minorities villages situated at state border area, then they cutting the all link roads ,obstructing National Highways with landmine and pushing the innocent tribal women and children in front of armed police force. After that so called Maoist group demand for release of terrorist leader/Militant from jail custody. The terrorist group like Maoist, kamtapruri, GMM those who are killing innocent Lady Health worker, school teacher, and police constable, owner of little Ration Shop and ordinary people. Several of terrorist training center continuing by them at this area. After Mumbai incident both central and state government should take necessary action on this matter.
