Bomb(ed)ay

Mumbai,Bangalore,Ahmedabad,Delhi,Jaipur these are just another names of the city for many people but for us Indians these are the places where thousands lost their lives to the atrocity of terrorism.

26th November 2008 will not be forgotten as the day has been inscribed in blood as a black day.
the terrorism does exist all over the world and it is just that our India has been at the receiving end for eternity.

Few things that makes my blood boil and i want to vent my anger here, i guess you will all agree with me.
1.Every terror attack is carried out meticulously here and we have never been able to intercept any of them, even if we did we say it post the attack.
Question: Is our defence the weakest link in the chain?

2.Americanising everything to the extent this attack is called 26/11 along the lines of 9/11,
Question:why?don't we have work other than just stylising the gory attacks?

3.The martyrs of this attack are from different regions of the country,like Sandeep Unikrishnan from south,Gajendar Singh from North,Hemant Karkare from west.If the country were to go by what the senseless,useless,non patriotic creature like Raj Thackeray said then the death count would have been in thusands and not in hundreds.
Question: Should people who support regionalising be arrested?

4.Shivraj Patil made to resign, Vilas rao deshmukh being asked to resign....
Can't these politicians take the wrath of the people on their chin and take on the terror and put an end to it and then resign. No they will not ,they will just walk away.
Note: Vilas rao deshmukh took Ritesh Deshmukh(Son and actor) and director Ram gopal Verma to see the carnage at the Taj hotels. I am just speechless. I mean this is the chief minister of the terror ravaged state for god sakes just fire him from the post and donate him to the terrorists.

The politicians attaching their party logo on the banners of the homage meant for the brave men who fought and lost their lives, this is the height of shame i guess.

The youth of this country should put their hands up and say we will take this country forward.I know one swallow doesn't make a summer , if handful of young people from each colony step out then we have the young and educated politicians on our hand.But this will remain a dream and never a reality.

"Nisha" is naughty









It has been a very long hibernation for me from te blogging lane and I suddenly come out of my hibernation and publish this on a day when Mumbai (Bombay) is under siege and Cyclone Nisha has wreaked havoc in Madras and Tamilnadu in general. On a day when stepping out was as difficult as dancing on a soaped floor i managed to do a survey and whipped my camera out and took few shots of the carnage. The pictures are just the tip of the iceberg,these are shot in my area Nanganallur(Madras) you can imagine the damage in other low lying areas.
