New Delhi. Union Home Minister Amit Shah (Amit Shah ) said on Thursday that anti-terrorism agencies will have to adopt such a tough stance that new terrorist organizations cannot flourish in the country. Addressing the anti-terrorism conference, Shah also said that not only terrorism but the entire eco-system of terrorists will have to be destroyed. The Home Minister said that the tough decisions taken by the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi have yielded very good results in dealing with the challenges posed by cryptocurrency, hawala, terrorist financing, organized crime gangs and narco-terror links. He said that still a lot remains to be done.
The Home Minister said, ‘Due to the tough decisions of the government, there has been great success in reducing violence in Jammu and Kashmir, Naxal affected areas and the North-East. In the last 5 years, the Modi government has prepared many big databases, all the agencies of the Center and the State should make multidimensional use of them, only then we will be successful in the fight against terrorism. We have to use this database for investigation, prosecution, prevention and action.
NIA should prepare the system
He said, “NIA should form an anti-terrorism structure. The investigation structure and SOPs and hierarchies of anti-terrorism agencies should be similar in all states. So that there can be better coordination between central and state agencies. We have to work towards creating a common training module so that there can be uniformity in the methodology of fighting terrorism.”
The eco-system of terrorism must be ended
Home Minister Amit Shah further said, “All anti-terrorism agencies will have to adopt such a tough stance that new terrorist organizations cannot flourish.” Shah said that we need to not only fight terrorism but also eliminate its entire eco-system. There is a need to do this, and for this “we should work with the entire government and the spirit of Team India.”
