This post has nothing to do with books or writing, but i felt i should write it. the whole of the world knows what happened in Mumbai on this unfortunate day, ten heavily armed terrorists attacked Mumbai on several sensitive places such as: CST station, The Taj and Oberoi hotels and the Nariman House. the attacked killed more than 175 people  injuring more than 300. it was Wednesday and the day was going as normal as it could be. my parents had a call at around 1:30 in the night from a relative saying that firing had taken place on several places and that the schools will be closed tomorrow. my parents turned on the television where on every possible news channel, only one picture was seen: Taj, the five star hotel was on fire, four of ten merciless terrorists had taken the Taj hostage. and they were in search of tourists. Firing indiscriminately at the Leopold Cafe two had stormed in at lobby while the other two were waiting in silence then the four assembled in lobby and began their bloody rampage. It was late in the morning that i woke up clueless of the happenings around the city. i was puzzled because i wasn't sent to school and so i came into the hall where i asked my father the reason and he just gave me the morning's newspaper where i saw a man in a weird position, i didn't saw the gun in his hand or the hate on his face. i was puzzled that an ordinary man's picture was in newspaper but then i saw the gun and slowly the picture became clear my first reaction was 'why is he moving around with a AK- 47?' and that name of gun made it more clear, he was a terrorist, a terrorist moving around to kill. then my father told me that several places were attacked and i swithched on the television where for next 60 hours constant gunfire was heard.

my questions were 'what was the police doing? and the army, didn't the army men gundown the terrorists? why NSG (NATIONAL SEQURITY GUARDS) was needed? isn't the army brave?' those questions had no answers. today on 26/11/09 the attacks will complete its first anniversary, but the questions have still got no answers, nothing has changed only the arrested gunman Kasab, the young 'boy' in newspaper  is leading, maybe a comfortable life in jail, no decision is taken even after so many people saw him firing at innocent people. we have lost no one in the attack but we shed tears for those who have because we support each other and this is the unity on India, the unity of Mumbai. and we hope that no city in India or any other country face such a attack, and we should confront the bloody terrorists, Mumbai can't stop just because ten fanatics came and took her hostage but this is what we call spirit of Mumbai.
