Faultlines: Writings on Conflict and Resolution (Volume 13)

 
K.P.S. Gill (Editor) Ajai Sahni (Editor)
Synopsis The ‘Global War against Terror’ notwithstanding, the sources, the power and the impact of terrorism continue to extend themselves into uncharted geographical areas. Though the world today recognizes the imperatives of the containment of terrorist violence, more than a year after 9/11, there is little evidence of a consistent international resolve to do what is necessary to secure this end. Counter-terrorism responses, both in South Asia and in other theatres across the world, remain inchoate and fitful. If the war against terrorism is to succeed, it will have to evolve, before all else, a clearer understanding of the dynamics of terrorism and the development of strategic perspectives that can disrupt, and eventually neutralize, its support systems. Faultlines seeks to create the basis for such an understanding.

K.P.S. Gill

K.P.S. Gill led the war against terrorism in Punjab during his tenure as Director General of Police, and it was under his direction that the movement for Khalistan was finally and comprehensively defeated. He is credited with radical strategic innovations in counter-terrorist operations, and an extraordinary understanding of the psyche of the people of Punjab, which contributed directly to what was, after he took over, a remarkably swift operation and a decisive victory. An officer of the Indian Police Service (1957 Batch) from the Assam cadre, he had already tackled terrorism and political turbulence in North-East during his tenure spanning over 25 years in the region. He also served as Director-General, Central Reserve Police Force; Inspector General, Border Security Force, Jammu; and Inspector General of Police, Meghalaya.
