BRUSSELS: Terrorism cannot be ended merely by using “bombs and guns” but by creating an atmosphere in society that curbs radicalisation of the youth, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said.
“No religion preaches terrorism,” Modi told a gathering of Indian diaspora here, adding that he has spoken to many world leaders and emphasised the need to delink religion from terror.
Referring to a recent Sufi conference in New Delhi where he said liberal Islamic scholars had unanimously denounced terrorism, Modi said: “The more such voices are raised, the more rapidly we can save our youth from radicalisation.”
He said hundreds of parents are crying because their children have taken to terrorism.
“Terrorism cannot be ended only by using bombs, guns and pistols. We need to create an environment in our society,” he said. (AGENCIES)
