What did the government do to control radicalization?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Ministry of Home Affairs<\/strong> had set up the Counter-Terrorism and Counter Radicalisation division\u00a0<\/strong>in 2017. Its aim is to frame developing policies and strategies to counter-radicalization. The focus of this division is mainly on the implementation and administration of counter-terror laws and monitoring of fundamentalist organizations such as the Popular Front of India, Jamaat-e-Islami etc.<\/p>\n

However, the group is not completely successful in controlling radicalization.<\/p>\n

What should India further do to control the threat of radicalization?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Government should realize that any deviation from conventional thinking can not be termed as radicalization. Radicalization becomes problematic only when it has a tendency to lead to violence. So developing a broad understanding can help in creating an effective action plan.<\/p>\n

Define radicalization: <\/strong>Government should first begin by defining radicalization. This will provide clarity of purpose and help in developing an action plan.<\/p>\n

Frame strategies: <\/strong>The battle against radicalization begins in the minds and hearts. So Indian state should develop and enforce de-radicalization, counter-radicalization and anti-radicalization strategies at a pan-India and pan-ideology level on a war footing.<\/p>\n

Adopt uniform policies:\u00a0<\/strong>Government should adopt uniform policies to deal with radicalization and associated strategies. Also, initiatives should be taken to stop the flow of radicalization across the borders.<\/p>\n

Mainstreaming youth: <\/strong>Policies should be adopted to mainstream youth and indulge them in productive work. Government should work on activities like promotion of the syncretic nature of religions in India, promotion of constitutional values and virtues, promotion of sports etc<\/p>\n
