Mumbai has been shaken again! ...before our wounds of 26/11 had dried up, India bleeds again..
and to chaff upon our injuries comes the toothless assurance of our Prime Minister Mr. Manmohan Singh... saying Blasts will be prevented in future... Little does he realise that the future is now... !!!!
Our Home Minister rules out intelligence glitch.
and as if that wasn't enough... Rahul Gandhi, a person who projects himself as the future Prime minister, goes ahead to tell that blasts cannot be avoided.
Whatever happened to the brave hearts of the Indian leaders?
In short they are resigned to the assumption that people will continue to die and nothing can be done about it, except what the PM has now done... roll out lakhs of rupees as compensation...
This is a routine that happens after every attack that happens on the Indian soil.
In 1965 when Pakistan threatened us, Lal Bahadur Shastri, the Prime Minister then, said
The mixed and confused responses of our silent Manmohan Singh, is a sharp contrast to the response of our Ex- Prime Minister Latr Lal Bahadur Shastri.
While Shastriji drew India's potrait of a nation that cannot be torn down by attacks.. the current Prime Minster is potraying us as a nation to weak to protect itself and too shy to express itself?
What has happened in the past 10 years? We have born every attack silently...
Terrorist rise and strike.. we get hurt.. we get killed.. we bleed.. we weep...
and then it is all forgotten!!
Take a look at the data yourself :
March 1993 blasts
12/03/1993 : RDX bomb explosions at 11 places.
270 Dead and more than 1000 injured.
30/06/1995 : Trial starts.
around 100 are found guilty; out of which 12 get death sentence. 20 get life imprisonment and the rest 32 remain absconding, mainly in Pakistan. The awardees of death sentence have appealed in Supreme Court.

At this hour, our anger is not only against the terrorists, but also against our own administration and Government. Why isn't there enough vigilance.. why aren't there enough mock-operations.. and why the hell, do we never have the intelligence?
Why does all the action starts only after people have died??
It takes effort to be alert and vigilant. The citizens can slip into the shadow of unawareness.. but the administration cannot.. They have not been appointed for resting in comfort. What is the use of having a system in place, if we still cannot sleep in peace.
Looking at the above statistics, it is so very clear that at any moment we may have to combat the worst attacks.. then why are they never prepared.... ?
This is a time, when we, the Indians... need straight answers from the government. Is it ever going to stand up and hit terrorism on the face??
The government should, if it is at all willing to do something against terrorism:
1> fast track Kasab case.2> Resolve all pending cases within months and punish the guilty severely.
3> In the ongoing talks with Pak... demand handing over of all the absconding Pakistani criminals and through a fast track court impose punishment as severe as the Justice may deem fit.
If the government is unwilling to take these steps, it is clear that we are ruled by not only a group of people who squander away our taxes in foreign banks... but also petty cowards..who can let people die.. and yet come to ask for our votes!!!!
It is High Time, we stopped tolerating !!!
and to chaff upon our injuries comes the toothless assurance of our Prime Minister Mr. Manmohan Singh... saying Blasts will be prevented in future... Little does he realise that the future is now... !!!!
Our Home Minister rules out intelligence glitch.

In 1965 when Pakistan threatened us, Lal Bahadur Shastri, the Prime Minister then, said
"Force will be met with force."On 15th August 1965, he sent a clear message to Pakistan, declaring from the ramparts of the Red Fort:
"It does not matter if we are destroyed. We will fight to the last to maintain the high honor of the Indian nation and its flag."When China Intimidated India on basis of false allegations, Lal Bahadur Shastri said :
"China's allegation is untrue. If China attacks India it is our firm resolve to fight for our freedom. The might of China will not deter us from defending our territorial integrity."
The mixed and confused responses of our silent Manmohan Singh, is a sharp contrast to the response of our Ex- Prime Minister Latr Lal Bahadur Shastri.
