The United nations General Assembly in 1994 defined terrorism as the criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons or particular persons for political purposes are in any circumstance unjustifiable, whatever the considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or any other nature that may be invoked to justify them. Bruce Hofmann, a political analyst in his book “Inside terrorism” defines terrorism in a prescribed manner. He stated that by distinguishing terrorists from other types of criminals and terrorism from other forms of crime, we come to realize that terrorism is ineluctably political in aims and motives, violent – or, equally important, threatens violence, designed to have far-reaching psychological repercussions beyond the immediate victim or target, conducted by an organization with an identifiable chain of command or conspiratorial cell structure (whose members wear no uniform or identifying insignia) and perpetrated by a sub national group or non-state entity. Terrorism eventually consist of fear and violence, damage to property, loss of life, mental damage to the effected person, loss in finance, large effect on society and political effects. The shadow of terrorism, which is since 1793, has covered a long distance from its origin and has continued its growth today. Different countries along with their defence mechanism all over the world are constantly keeping an eye on the terrorist groups and are developing the new ways to tackle the threat of terrorism by finding the roots of this problem and also by protecting innocent people from its effects.
