This post refers to the reactions by various Political Parties and Leaders to the execution of capital punishment of Afzal Guru.
More often than not we see the opposition parties thrashing the workings of the parties in power and vice-verse, it is extremely rare when we see the political parties actually speaking about the matter in question and maybe appreciating the steps by the Government.
The point being, in a country with so many issues and problems plaguing us, we need a collaborative approach from our leaders and not a cat-fight just for the sake of vote bank politics. Expressing genuine concerns and differences in ideologies are more than welcome but we need solutions not just debates and discussions (that too less in the Parliament and more in the media).
And what happened today, with the primary opposition party BJP welcoming the execution and sending a strong message against terrorism reflects the true strength of our country. We need much more collaboration & appreciation cutting across party lines which would lead to strong governance and action against our country's problems.
