The suggestion that intelligence agencies must be ahead of the perpetrators of terror in order to snuff out untoward incidents needs to be addressed by the government immediately (Editorial page, “Ten years after the Mumbai attack”, November 26). When novel methods are adopted by terrorists, mere sophistication of spy equipment will not yield results. Suitable persons must be inducted into the intelligence system. The intelligence recruitment process needs a relook.
