Why Jaipur?

Now when Indian Mujahideen took the responsibility for bombing Jaipur, there’s no more confusion regarding who did it. Whatever be the name of the terrorist group, one thing is confirmed that it’s an Islamic group and is fed by two of our neighboring countries. Those two neighboring country, for the one of which, India went on war to free it from the other. This is irony that the country who took birth from the death of thousands of Indian soldiers is now supplying terrorists to ruin it. That's a different story though.

The reason for this attack? The Indian Mujahideen has come up with an innovative thought for the answer. According to them, they wanted to hit the ever growing tourism industry in India thus ruining Indian economy hard.

Now this statement takes us to do some study on Indian tourism industry.

It's a wellknown fact that India is enjoying the footfall of thousands (if not millions) thourists' every year. Ever since Indian tourism industry came up with the ‘Incredible India’ slogan, the tourism scenario is just not same anymore. The statistics says that the influx of foreign tourists has more than doubled in last five years.

Interestingly, the two places that attract tourists the most are Agra and Rajasthan, in the order. Delhi, Khajuraho, Mumbai and Kerala follow later. So, in order to destroy the tourism industry, Jaipur seemes to be an obvious choice since it is the capital of Rajasthan. But why not Agra? If Agra alone magnets more tourist than the cumulative effort of the entire Rajasthan state, then why didn’t terrorists bomb Taj Mahal?

But I guess the answer lies in the question itself. Do I really need to say why Indian Mujahideen didn’t attack Taj Mahal?
