not responding to 26/11 has dented our credibility. Govt then was throwing money at Baluchis while screwing Hindu nationalists in India. Once Hindu nationalists are equated to Jihadis in public mind a quid pro quo maneuver could've liquidated Hindu nationalists in no time.
sacrifice of Tukaram Ombale saved Hindutva from dire fate. But it cannot solve the problem per se. It was a clever plan to make a case for war against both Hindutva (internally) and Pakistan (externally). Somehow, Nehruvian establishment has linked these two since 1946
State of affairs are such that a Nehruvian establishment has to do something against Hindutva for its actions against Jihadis are to be justified. 26/11 was ideal confluence of both hence people were ready with agitprop literature.
Entire system is steeped in this mindset

Modi, if he wishes to reinvent India, has to decouple Hindutva from Jihad from mind of establishment and bring about a new status quo where Hindutva is not same as Jihad so far as India's internal threat matrix goes and in many situations actually desirable to have for stability
