The Tamilnadu Muslim Makkal Katchi welcomes the belated realisation and frank admission of the Union Finance Minister that “Minority despair will trigger new waves of terrorism.” The need of the hour is solid action. Even as parsnips cannot be sweetened through the sprinkling of honey, the grievances of the minorities cannot get solved through occasional expressions of sympathy and support. The swifter the UPA Government takes concrete steps to assuage the ruffled sentiments of the minorities by implementing the recommendations of the Misra Commission, the better for its survival.
