Problem of Terrorism : 

The word terrorism has originated from Latin word ‘Terror’ which means great fear or panic. Commonly, any method to create any type of fear can be called terrorism. Terrorism is usually supported by religious, ethnic, regional and social grounds. In modem era fear is the chief basis of so called totalitarian rule. The fundamental goal of terrorism is to grab power by removing the existing or lawrelated rule. Terrorism is the most dangerous psychological warfare tool of the world. After the end of the cold war, terrorism has become a big threat to the world. Terrorism is evolving new trends in which there is an apprehension of the use of atomic or biological weapons and chemical weapons and a danger of mass destruction.

It has been a strategy of the terrorists to create fear in common public in a planned way, profit should be gained from the government and demands should be raised before government. In the history of India, terror has been used again and again to get power. In the two decades of last century in India, Sikh terrorism, Islamic terrorism of Jammu and Kashmir, terrorism in the different states of north east, etc can be included in the definition of terrorism.

In Jammu and Kashmir of India, besides local terrorist groups, other trained and foreign terrorists of Pakistan are also active, but most of the terrorists groups of 20th and 21st century have failed in their motives. In Punjab in India, terrorists remained a failure. In Kashmir, these groups get support from local public due to religious factor, but these groups are forced to kneel before security forces. ISIS, Boko Haram, Taliban and other Muslim terrorist groups remained a failure politically. Today, terrorism has become a challenge to world peace and security. This problem will not come to an end until all the world’s nations unite and face it. All sovereign nations should take strong steps to deal with this problem.
