Terrorism leads to barriers towards a country’s growth

Posted on at


Any evaluation of development potentials needs to take into account the influence of internal and external social stability on social progress. A country that is targeted on an everyday basis by not just external forces as well as the internal terrorism, cannot strive for social development. Every country has to counteract infiltration, adding to that the countries faces new home-grown threats, which are a more serious area of concern than across border intrusion.

Take for instance India, Pakistan or Afghanistan. India is more concerned about the cross border terrorism which the government needs to counterpart. Pakistan on the other had needed to deal both internal differences and defy the external powers as well. The turmoil situation that even exists in Afghanistan has still has a long path to thrive to rebuild its past glory.

The announcement of the Indian Budget, India boosts a defence spending by 12 percent in 2014-2015 at 2.29 trillion. Last month Pakistan also had to hike the defence budget to 10 percent from 627 billion to 700 billion.

The debate is understandable; we demand to upgrade our defence mechanism with more upgraded versions of defence tools as we are competing with giant powers like China, America, and Russia. Only the social issue faced by our countries like poverty, the immense shortage of infrastructure, insignificant education, and wellness issues have to be solved first for a country to modernize and flourish.
