TERRORISM STRIKES MUMBAI
26th November 2008


A day of panic,a day of blood,a day of tears,a day of pain,a day of death of innocents,a day of sacrifice,a day of TERRORISM-26th november 2008 had all of this!! Just 3hours before this incident occured,along with a group of friends,I was near The Trident.I did not lose any dear one,but still i dont know why my heart pains for all this and so just felt like sharing up....
It was a bright winter morning that day.Everything seemed just so beautiful.Day was the same for everyone.Hectic life went on as usual,but no one ever imagined that this time the attack would be on the financial capital of India-MUMBAI!Eight prime locations were targetted.Attacks occured in South Mumbai a
t Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus[CST] ;the Oberoi Trident ;Taj Mahal Palace and Tower ;Leopold Cafe ;Cama hospital[a woman and children's hospital] ;the Orthodox-Jewish owned Nariman House ;the Metro Cinema ;a lane behind the Times of India office building and St.Xavier's College ;Mazgaon[mumbai's port area] ;and in a taxi at vile parle.This attack started on 26th nov'08 and went on till 29th nov'08.A total of 170 people died in these attacks and many were injured.9TERRORISTS were killed and only one was caught alive-"AJMAL KASAB"-THE Baby faced-DEVIL...There arise so many questions in my mind,which are always left unanswered:
1.Is Mumbai so uns
afe that terrorists enter and OPEN FIRE at prime locations killing so many innocents?
2.What were the so-called-politicia
ns doing?partying?
3.Why did policemen die inspite of wearing BULLET-PROOF jackets?
4.Why inspite of having guns,pistols,polic
emen have to use their lathis?
5.Why is KASAB still ALIVE?on
what grounds?aren't the pictures provided by the media enough to prove him guilty?
6.Why were 33crores spent on Kasab wi
thin a year just to keep him alive?
7.Why was a lawy
er even appointed and why are there hearings?he was caught red-handed.wasn't that enough!!
8.How come KASAB still has the guts to do nautankis in the court by spitting on the camera and demanding to go to america?
9.Why is the entire road near arthur road jail kept shut causing inconvenience to the citizens?does it imply that the poli
ce authorities cant take CARE of KASAB and are scared he might run away?
10.Every coin has two sides-the people who lost their dear ones in these attacks-how come they are sitting still?the cri
minal who killed their loved ones is sitting there alive with all facilities and smiling...doesnt ur blood boil with anger?
11.Is a life sentence or hanging an appropriate punishment for Kasab?

I know th
e useless people sitting out there in the government have no answers,but i tried finding them in my own way through research,through peers etc

-the terrorists entered mumbai across the arabian sea from karachi in pakistan,hijacked the trawler 'Kuber',Killing the crew of four and forcing the captain to sail to mumbai.The first events were detailed at around 8pm acc.to IST[indian standard time]on 26th nov'08 when 10men in inflatable speedboats came ashore at two locations in colaba.The fishermen there questioned them as to who they were but they were asked to mind their own business.The fishermen at that time itself did report to the policemen but as always,because of their chalta-hai attitude the police did not response or look much into it.Had they taken appropriate actions at that time itself,such a disaster would have been avoided,and many innocents would have been saved...but hats off to the police!!
-Politicians came along with filmmakers at the victimised spots so that they make a movie...aaarrrghhh...A
sses!!this resulted in the resignations of Chief Minister-VILASRAO DESHMUKH, deputy CM-R.R.PATIL,minister for home affairs-SHIVRAJ PATIL..
-CORRUPTI
ON is so prevalant...the politicians just cant mend their ways..how greedy are they for money!!inspite of eating so much money how hungry are they yet!!the officials,politicians all are responsible for these.the amount that is made available for the best of jackets,guns is not spent there...instead half amount goes into their pockets and pistols,guns,jackets are bought which are duplicates..and obviusly defective..
-when i see kasab...i go mad with anger..WHY IS HE STILL ALIVE??what more proofs does the government want.
-33crores on kasab!!had they been given to the needful,poor people..they would have their tummies filled atleast once a day..why the heck were they spent on kasab?is our government so foolish?
-kasab is making the authorities dance to his t
unes..by demanding!!
-The punishment of hanging and life sentenc
e is so mere in front of what kasab has done..he should be left in public..all tied up...n leave the people on him who lost their dear ones..their anger would be so much that he had get the best of punishments ever!
Its been almost 2years my friends.It pains to
read of 26/11/08 even today..eyes become moist..anger surrounds my mind even today and especially towards the government these days as to what are they waiting for..tarikh pe tarikh??lives of thousands of people were affected by these attacks...Many brave officers lost their lives saving others..Many women,children too lost their lives.Men too..the heartless CREATURES didnt even leave the one who gave them water...behind Cama hospital,they barged into a sweeper's home and asked for water..as soon as they got it...they shot the sweeper in his house itself...he had small children around 5years of age..and a wife, a mother!!the actual incidents that took place near cama hospital which no one is aware of are potrayed beautifully in the book "TO THE LAST BULLET" written by Vinita Kamte,wife of late.Ashok Kamte,an IPS officer who sacrificed his life.If ever you get a chance do read this book.its about the struggle of a loving wife who wanted to know what exactly caused her husband's death...:(:(
Every year we rise up only on 26th novem
ber that we will fight for this,we dont want a repeater of 26/11,we lite candles,the papers are full of 26/11 news that day...but what after that??each one gets busy in their life and again the next year we remember 26/11...are we so careless???

A CHANGE IS REQUIRED AND IT WILL BE
BROUGHT UP ONLY BY US-the citizens...we cannot forget the hereos of 26/11......


I myself had visited Taj after the attacks..there was pain in the air there.,i also attended the rally near gateway of india..a sense of unity surrounded that atmosphere...these are some pics i had clicked:
