ABSTRACT
The article focuses on Azamgarh as the common first point of initiation of terrorists into radical Islam in Uttar Pradesh, India. The town became popular due to the bomb attacks in Mehrauli, Delhi and the arrest of terrorists from Jamia Millia Islamia University who are from Azamgarh. It is noted that the only friends of boys in Azamgarh madrasas are Muslims. Also noted is the refusal of the Azamgarh community to question the reason behind the inclination of their boys toward terrorism.
