We need a Citizen’s Security System.

Yesterday’s terror threat reminded me the article I wrote “Citizen Security System” on 6th Dec 2008 after 26/11 Mumbai attacks. I would like to share it as follows…

We all are bleeding from our hearts and deeply wounded, we don’t have words, what we have is only the anger to show.

Pakistani Politicians and Army survival depends on anti-Indian sentiment and by propagating it. No one has any doubt to say Pakistan is a terrorist country. In recent time’s pak politician’s talks about war on terror at front, in the back they are encouraging and sponsoring terror. There is no radical Islam before 1980’s it has been created by Pakistanis with American funds, in order to gather men to fight against soviets in Afghanistan. Pakistan diverted most of these funds to fight against India in the name of Kashmir issue, not for the Kashmiri’s. After Soviets withdrawal all jihads don’t have a target to hate. Pakistani terrorists turned against India and others are against western countries especially US and UK in the name of Palestine and rest are wanted to create bigger Islamic state. First two kinds can be eliminated but not the third kind, the world has to face it forever.

It look like Pakistani President Mr. Zardari knows about this attack, they want war with India to divert US from its war on terror. His recent statement that “Pakistan won’t detonate nuclear weapon first on India” this comment came with surprise and without any context. He is hinting the India that it can fire few missiles after 26/11 attack.

With booming economy we are moving towards capitalism, in the process we are moving towards US and west, for terrorist’s its not easy to strike western countries at their will, but India is a soft target because of its corruption, leader’s inability and overcrowded population. For these reasons we will take major impact in the coming future.

With 9/11 attacks and because of some Bollywood movies it became as a fascination to become as terrorist in India. It is nothing but Sinicism and psychopath mentality. All the communal riots are politically motivated or definitely some anti-social elements are behind for their own benefit so far our politicians failed us to capture and punish the perpetrators and to prevent these events, Terrorists are using these incidents as their propaganda weapons.

Most of our Politicians are selfish and worthless they don’t do anything and they can’t do anything. Corruption is at unacceptable level, it became as integral part of our government and society. Anyone can buy birth certificates, ration cards, driving licenses and so on, and can start contesting in our ballets. In reality we can’t prevent attacks but the damage can be minimized.

We have right to express our anger and concerns. We never did it before when our democracy is on stake or over unemployment or skyrocketing prices. It’s welcoming and most desirable change that India needed. We must express our concerns publicly; the sad thing is that some are posting their comments over the web with duplicate names. Please do with your real names, don’t be afraid its freedom of speech, it’s our fundamental right.

We are watching some action only because elections are around the corner; it’s nothing, there are lot of more things has to be done. We must come out and demand what we want. We must start electing our leaders based on the merits not on the basis of his/her political party or cast or religion.

We badly need a Citizen’s Security System to protect our citizens from terrorist attacks and communal riots. This CSS will respond on their won without any chain of commands or without any interference from center or state govt. officials or politicians. Any police station can call directly for help or CSS field officers can call them.

CSS should have 5 Terror Response Zones (East, West, North, South and Central). Each zone consisting of 5,000 army soldiers and 5,000 army commandos trained for antiterrorism, guerilla, and urban, rural, biological and nuclear warfare and with 4 airplanes and 10 helicopters.

  • In a zone there should be a First Response Team with 500 members, they should work in 4 shifts, with 100 members per shift, they should be ready for deployment within 5 to 10 minutes, and one plane should be ready to take off at any moment with full of armor and ammunition.
  • After FRT’s departure the first Reinforcement Team (with 250 commandos) should be get ready for air lifting in 30 minutes and 2nd Reinforcement should be get ready for air lifting in an hour if necessary.
  • Each operation should have a one command center in its zonal office it should work 24/7, each zone could be able to take up to 50 operations at the same time.
  • Each commando should have complete protection (ready for Bio and Nuclear attacks) suites with latest weapons and night vision capability and should carry a web camera (can be recorded at zonal office with voice over secure connection) and communication systems. All operations should be conducted from their zonal command center. Commandos should be air dropped in a safe and close to hot spot.
  • Each zone should have several field officers deployed all over the places; they should acquire the complete knowledge of the area, streets and places. In the event of attack or riots these field officers can call the zonal offices for help. These are responsible for looking out safe places for commando’s air drop locations and should guide them to the hot spot.
  • In the event of attack TRZ’s should scan all the incoming and outgoing communications from land and mobile phones, faxes and computers.
  • Zonal office location must be setup in a way that flight journey should take below 30 minutes to reach any extreme end. Each zone should establish a regional office in every metro city and sensitive places with 60 commandos they will also work in 4 shifts. Each RO get one helicopter, it should be able to carry 15 commandos and ammunition and should be used to chase the suspects and for Arial coverage.
  • TRZ’s should inform the TV stations, Press, Air ports, Railway stations, Bus stations, sport complexes, movie theaters and public places automatically within 10 minutes of the incident.
  • When an attack starts, 144 Section should be in effect around 1km radius. Local police should block the incoming traffic and evacuate the roads and guard the hospitals and help the victims to carry into hospitals. Announcing the warning and suggestions over the loud speakers.
  • TV stations must announce the affected areas, helpline phone numbers and suggestions like stay in the home and don’t come on to the roads and so on.
  • When attack took place air ports, railway and bus stations of the city must start recording its entry and exit points. They should be on high alert. Incoming trains and buses must be stopped at previous scheduled stop. Outgoing trains and buses must leave at scheduled time and must be stopped until thorough inspection in their next stations at least 50 or 100km away from the hot spot.
  • Electricity should be shut off; cell phones should be blocked with jammers after 30 minutes of attack and must be restored as soon as the commandos operation is over or if it is secure to do so.
  • Zonal offices will provide a 30 minute delayed live feed and information to press and TV reporters, without compromising the public safety and without affecting the ongoing investigation.
  • After a month all recorded information without any sensor must be produced to loksatta kind of organizations, any wrong doing by the CSS must be prosecuted.
  • Commando’s age must be in between 20 to 30 years, they must be transferred back to the army after 5 years of service in CSS and the vacancies must be filled with new members.
  • Investigation Teams should reach the hot spot as soon as the operation ends.
  • Commandos must sanitize the hot spot and thoroughly investigate for the clues, all the evidences must be handed over to the CSS headquarters and the hot spot must be handed over to the local police. Until then either politicians or officials are not allowed to visit the hot spot.
  • CSS Headquarters should keep in touch with intelligent agencies; state and central government’s and exchange the information with them. Coordinate and govern the TRZ’s.
