"People get involved in terrorism out of frustration and failure to meet their economic needs," he said while on tour in Dhaka. Only a sustainable economic development of a country can put an end to terrorism, the scientist emphasized, and thus offered an alternative cure at a time when the world is conducting a ruthless "war on terrorism."

"The higher the economic growth, the lower will be incidents of terrorism, "he told his audience.
