Attacks on Parliament have revealed a pitiful lack of security readiness.
This is further highlighted by the fact that it happened on the same day as the previous, deadly attack on Parliament in 2001. For the security breach, clear blame and responsibility must be assigned, and heads should roll.
There are fortress-like buildings, structures, and sites in India that rank among the safest locations—possibly the safest in the entire globe. One of these buildings is the Parliament. It serves as a symbol of the might and might of 140 crore Indians and is the temple of our democracy. It is said that the recently opened new Parliament building is more secure than the previous one.
Therefore, on Wednesday, two individuals managed to get past the entire security system, sneak into Parliament's main hall, and nearly reach the well before being stopped by a few lawmakers and the security staff's wards. This revealed a serious weakness in the otherwise very strong security system.
Just a few hours had passed since the whole Parliament, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar, paid respects to the martyrs of the December 13, 2001 attack on Parliament, when this incident—a blot on our security establishment—took place.
