Terrorism has now become a global issue. It is one of the man made disasters facing the world today. It is an act of violation of human rights. Any act of criminal violence or intimidation by any individual or group, causing terror and violation of human rights, may be called terrorism. It may be local, regional, national or even international in extent. We heard of terror attacks in various public places. It creates fear and panic all around.

Life in this world has become insecure because of global terrorism. The terrorist attacks in the USA on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11. 2001 are examples of last variety. Cross border terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir is another example of this kind. Terrorism is now a global phenomenon and no state in India is now free from the problem although the measures to deal it may differ. The law and order enforcing agencies throughout the world find themselves helpless in meeting the growing challenge posed by terrorism.

A good leader is necessary in a society. But it is hard to find a good leader. A good leader has some special quality. We lack good leaders and that accounts for our deterioration. A good leader should be a genuine path finder. He knows the people and their environment He should have the courage to act on what he preaches.

A good leader should identify himself with his people. He should meet them, mix with them, and be one of them. A good leader should be able to rise to the occasion. It is only the times of distress and emergency that leader mettle is tested. Mahatma Gandhi was a good leader. He was wedded to truth and non violence. He stood firmly when there were trails and tribulations. His life was really a series of experiments with truth.
