A year since 26/11

Is India safer today?

The very replacement of home minister Shivraj Patil by P Chidambaram itself brought in a qualitative change in our approach to the problem. Some institutional safeguards have no doubt been put in place.

But at the ground level yawning gaps remain. Squabbling politicians and their misplaced priorities do not give us any sense of security.

It's the practise of patriotism rather than a show of it that will make India strong.
