Significance of National Anti-Terrorism Day

National Anti Terrorism Day is observed on May 21 to pay tribute to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi on his death anniversary. Rajiv Gandhi was India's first youngest prime minister, who was also the sixth Prime Minister of India after his mother Indira Gandhi's assassination in 1984. Rajiv Gandhi served India as the Prime Minister from 1984 to 1989. He was campaigning as the party president for the national elections when he was assassinated in Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu, in May 1991.

The key purpose of the National Anti-Terrorism Day is to develop and spread the message of global peace and non-violence and stop youths from following cult practices and being misled. National Anti Terrorism Day also acknowledges the losses made by thousands of soldiers who fought against terrorism. It's regarded as a day to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in terrorist attacks. On this day, various awareness programmes are planned to protect future generations from insurgent influence.
