Bomb blasts
The series of blasts have once again proved beyond doubt that the government is not ready to take any action against the extremist elements. People may ask themselves how could a government continue to be in power without doing anything to stop the killing of innocent people?
It's now apparent that the ruling alliance is not ready to rein in the extremist elements as their godfathers are part of the system. Under the circumstances, the international community should address the issue to protect the lives of innocent people.
The government's failure to protect innocent lives is tantamount to violation of human rights, because it's the duty of the government to protect lives and property.
