Anti-Terrorist Military Court needed in India: M.S.Bitta
Aurangabad,
Maharashtra, Jul 26 : All India Anti-Terrorist Front president M S Bitta today
advocated the establishment of an Anti-Terrorist Military Court, that will be
free from political interference.
Addressing
a crowded press conference here, Mr Bitta also demanded that all countries
should come together and declare Pakistan a terrorist state. ''India should adopt a bullet for bullet policy with
Pakistan, which must hand over the masterminds of the 26/11 Mumbai terror
attacks and all other strikes in the country,'' he said.
The former
All India Yuva Congress president, citing the example of Sri Lanka, which has
ended the 35 years long conflict with the LTTE, headed by M Prabhakaran, said
India should adopt the same policy to deal with terrorist activities in the
country.
Maharashtra
is the financial capital of the country and there is a need to provide latest
guns and other equipment to policemen and jawans so that, they are able to
handle the terrorists whenever needed, he said.
Mr Bitta
said security in the border states should be beefed up to prevent terrorist
activities.
''Terrorism
will end in the country if all political parties come together to fight it,'' Mr
Bitta added.
Making a
frontal attack on former Home Minister Shivraj Patil, Mr Bitta said he was not
able to handle terrorism properly during his tenure.

Bullet for bullet can counter terrorism: AIATF chief
Published: Tuesday, July 29, 2008, 23:02 [IST]
Ahmedabad, Jul 29 (UNI) All India
Anti-Terrorist Front (AIATF) chairman Maninandersingh Bitta today asserted that
bullet for bullet policy should be applied against terrorists to counter their
activities.
''When two decades of
terrorism was put to an end in Punjab in less than a couple of years, why
shouldn't it be done all across the nation?'' he asked, while addressing
mediapersons here.
Mr Bitta decried the ''vote bank
politics'' of the political parties, saying that every political party was
involved in vote bank politics and was not ready to take any tough decisions
that would contain the terrorists.
He demanded that an ''Anti-Terrorist
Military Court'' be constituted for the speedy and effective trial of
terrorists. Any judgement given by the Supreme Court should not be referred to
the President of India for clemency.
Praising people of Gujarat for showing
exemplary bravery in the time of terror attacks, he said ''In my 28 years of fight against terror, I have not seen
people like of Surat who, without fearing explosions, are helping police to
locate bombs.'' Mr Bitta alleged that the Central intelligence agencies
have been politicised and have become a stooge of political powers. These
intelligence agencies should be directly under the supervision of the President
and Prime Minister, he said.
He said in Gujarat, all political
parties should unite and stand by Chief Minister Narendra Modi in his efforts
to counter terrorism.
Political rivalry should not come in
the way of fight against terror. ''How long we, the
politicians, play politics on the bodies of innocent people? What will be the
fate of the nation if the decision can not be taken against terrorists, like
Afzal Guru, just for the sake of votes? Not only the terrorists but also the
politicians pampering these elements should be tried under the anti-terrorist
military court,'' he added.

Use bullets
to end Kashmir terror: Bitta
TNN | Dec 24, 2011, 04.25AM
IST
PANAJI: India should adopt a
"bullet-for-bullet" policy to end terrorism in Kashmir like it did in
Punjab, said M S Bitta, chairman of the All India Anti-Terrorist Front (AIATF)
on Friday.
Bitta, who is in Goa, told TOI that
India should also set up an 'Anti-Terrorist Military Court' to mete out speedy
punishment to terrorists within six months. He also advocated setting up a
'terrorist victim commission' to deliver justice and compensation to victims of
terrorism within six months.
Himself a terrorist target, Bitta said
the government should introduce a quota system for the education, employment
and other social benefits for the victims of terrorism in India.
Bitta said eliminating terrorism is
not the responsibility of the police or the home ministry alone, but of the
entire political class. Citing Punjab as one example, Bitta said Punjab
suffered from terrorism for 25 years where 30,000 people lost their lives.
"But when the Congress, BJP,
CPM and CPI united, we finished terrorism from Punjab within one year. It can
be done if there is political will. Today, I am pained to say that the mindset
of all political parties is focused only on money, votes and power
politics," Bitta said.
Elaborating on the need for setting up
an 'Anti-Terrorist Military Court' for the early delivery of punishment to
terrorists, Bitta pointed to the "lazy handling" of various cases
like Afzal Guru,
Rajiv Gandhi
assassination, the terrorist attack on himself and alleged Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab.
Said Bitta, "There is confusion
on whether the Supreme Court is higher or the politicians are higher. Supreme
Court judges pronounce judgments by putting their lives at risk because unlike
politicians, they have no security during their retirement. Yet politicians sit
on their judgment files. This is an insult to the Supreme Court."
Bitta also extended his support to
anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare and
his movement, but warned against some of Anna's associates including Prashant
Bhushan and Medha Patkar.
Objecting to the views of these two
and also writer Arundhati
Roy on Kashmir, Bitta said if they were allowed their way, they will allow
states like Kashmir and Manipur to secede from India.
Earlier in the day, Bitta laid a
wreath at the martyrs' memorial at Azad Maidan, Panaji.
