Terror ecosystem has to be destroyed: Shah

 

 

 

 

UNION Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said that anti-terror agencies will have to adopt such ruthless approach that new terrorist organisations are not formed in the country. Addressing an anti-terror conference here, Shah also said not only terrorism, but the entire ecosystem of the terrorists has to be destroy. The Home Minister said tough decisions taken by the Modi Government have yielded very good results in handling challenges posed by cryptocurrencies, hawala, terror-funding, organised crime syndicates and narco-terror links.

 

Still a lot more is to be done, he said. “All anti-terror agencies will have to adopt such a ruthless approach that new terrorist organisations cannot be formed,” he said. Shah said there is a need to not only combat terrorism but also dismantle its entire ecosystem, and for this “we must work with the spirit of the Whole of Government and Team India”. Meanwhile, Shah will hold a meeting on Left Wing Extremism (LWE) to deal with the Naxal problem, in New Delhi on Friday. The meeting is likely to be attended by the Chief Ministers and Home Ministers or their representatives from the LWE-affected States.
