The terrorists Attack on Mumbai
I’m not used to it but I think all Mumbaikars are (?). It’s not a question of threat to India but a question that how people can react in such kind of situation and I’m impressed by the courage that people have shown here.
To give some details about the incident, I’m informing you that there were around 8 blasts in different areas of Mumbai which included some of the busiest places like CST station area, Nariman House, the 5 star hotels like TAJ and Oberoi (and may be Marriot ) and market places like Ville Parle, etc. It was a disaster and a terrifying act by those non-human beings who I think belonged to a different world. There were shootouts at these places which lasted for more than 24 hours. Some of the hostages who were trapped in Taj, Oberoi and Nariman House were killed and some were released (thank to God, police, ATS and NSG). The terrorists raised an open fire in many public places which killed many innocent lives. Eleven policemen (including six of the major officials) and 160 civilians were killed in the encounter with terrorists and more than 300 are injured. Many terrorists are also shot down but god knows how many are still remaining.
It is a humiliating act by a human being to do, so we should say that the people who have committed this are not human but devil. The terrorist have done an irrecoverable loss to Mumbai and India as a whole but India will fight back and give a counter attack to those who tried to ruin the image and the lives of India. The courage demonstrated by civilians, ATS, police and NSG is worth saluting and I do it with a firm belief in them.
I live in a remote area and wasn’t aware of this incident until midnight when one of my friends was informed about it. I put my Radio on tried to listen to any news relating to the incident. I was relieved that Radio Mirchi was playing a role of mediator between general public and the people who witnessed the incidents. From that I got to know about the horrible act of terrorists. The next day every news-papers’ front page was showing images of terrorists and the blood bath at different places. I read the newspaper and found out the facts. As I am not having a television to show me news I took help of in.com which showed live news channels like IBN7 to give more details of the incident.
I was trying to write a blog over it but couldn’t as it is not a topic of writing but an issue to be thought over again and again. Everybody has a question in his/her mind that how the terrorist groups are funded so that they purchase AK-47s and AK-56s which Indian government also cannot because we have different guns in the police force and Army (I knew this because one of my friend informed me that AK-47 and 56 are made in US). The answer is simple: WE. Each and every time we buy a pirated product which is illegal or try to do an act of illegality we support people like Mujahideen and LeT. The expenditure incurred by us to do this acts is very less for us but Drops of Water forms an Ocean. All this black money is transferred to the terrorists and their companions and they use it against you only. So please don’t curse them for the loss of your relative but curse yourselves for motivating them to do it. I’ll request you not to cheat our people and benefit others in due course. Instead don’t buy any pirated book from Dadar or CST or duplicates of branded shoes in Kurla. Either buy original or buy some local brands which suites your pocket. Wearing those fake products will just give you a fake identity.
People are hurt and they want some consolation. This write-up may not do the job so I need your HAND.
