Terror Aftermath

Read this for an excellent view on the happenings in bbay

Remember….

They say public memory is short… today’s news is tommorrow’s raddi. Well, i hope to God that is not the case – at the very least when it comes to the horrendous acts of terror that have been inflicted on India. I write this today lest people forget 

• the brazen confidence with which a bunch of random youths held my city hostage for almost 3 days
• the sacrifice of the soldiers and officers who fought like heroes to ensure the safety of millions
• the bravery of our forces who battled continuously for three days and nights to take control of one of the most loved buildings in India
• the shots that rang loud and clear… time and again – each shot signing the death warrant of another innocent
• the farce that the politicians put up to show that they are doing – when in reality all they care about is ensuring that their kursi is safe
• the truth behind the two faced monster that is Narendra Modi – for defaming and eulogizing the same officer within days 
• the cowardice of those who call themselves the sons of the soil – who were probably hiding with their tails between their legs somewhere while the whole ordeal was going on
• the incessant “live” coverage by the over enthusiastic media – which might just have given an edge to the terrorists

last but not the least… i write this lest people forget the 60 hours that brought an international war for a part of India to the waterfront of Mumbai… and turned it into a veritable battleground.
