Solution in numbers.

"In a major success against terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir, as many as 100 terrorists have been gunned down in the region this year, said a police official," HT. That is good news provided all of them are verified terrorists and none is collateral damage. The worrying thing is that, "While 'categorised' terrorists are those who have a criminal record, 'hybrid' terrorists are those who have no prior history of having committed a crime, which makes it harder to track them down. The latter have become a major challenge for the police, and, in most cases, they are local residents, sources said," The Print. But why do ordinary people resort to terrorism? "The controversy sparked by the vile, hurtful comments made about the Holy Prophet (PBUH) by a BJP leader refuses to die down, with the Indian state cracking down on protesters with immense brutality," Dawn. "One particularly shocking episode occurred in Allahabad, where police detained the mother, sister and father of student activist Afreen Fatima and surrounded her house to force her to surrender." Pakistani newspaper Dawn persists in calling the city Allahabad, a name given to the city by Mogul emperor Akbar, and changed to Prayagraj by the BJP government of Uttar Pradesh (UP), ET. The Tribune goes further. "After establishing Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP), India's notorious spy agency Research and Analysis (RAW) is working on a new 'project': Tehreek-e-Taliban India, The Express Tribune learnt. Sources privy to the development said that RAW seeks to ease pressure on Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government. 'The plan is to give cover to Modi's state terrorism' they revealed." This is not social media, this is a news channel, and will be accepted as truth, however unfounded its claims. Unfortunately, "Prominent representatives of Kashmiri Pandits (Hindus) ...alleged that the bureaucracy in Jammu and Kashmir is unable to resolve the ongoing crisis. They alleged that the civil society and political stakeholders who could have played a role in resolving these issues have been rendered defunct by the government over the past three years," ET. "The Yogi Adityanath administration (in UP) has left nobody in any doubt about the bulldozer demolitions in the state are really about," DH. "This has been a successful strategy in Yogi Adityanath winning a second term in office." "A recent survey published in newspapers, for example, found that 35 percent of a sample of buildings surveyed in Gujarat - Ahmedabad, Surat, Rajkot and Vadodara - were illegal. Not one of them has been demolished." Absolute surveillance is necessary to track troublemakers. So, "New born infants will soon receive a temporary Aadhaar number to be renewed with biometric data on attaining maturity, top officials told ET, as the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) prepares to launch two ambitious pilot programmes." India will be the only nation in the world where every citizen will be known by a number. Sequence of Hindu numbers should be distinct from others. That will help bulldozers to distinguish the illegals. That'll teach them.
