On the wave of banditry in the North
, the news of heinous and horrendous killings continue to spread particularly, in the northern part of the country where bandits, terrorists and other criminal gangs have sent so many people to their early graves and destroyed property worth millions of dollars.
Days before the visitation, the bandits had killed two people in a foiled attack by the security agents and injured scores before they finally fled to the nearby forest after hours of gun battle with the security agencies. During the visit, the governor apologised to the people and promised to eliminate the bandits. Yet, the bandits have continued to rain terror on the people despite the assurances by the governor.
Considering the speed at which the violence is gradually turning the states that are considered to be the food basket of the nation into baskets of violence, the nation risks an imminent famine.
