Selling Cameras In The Times Of Terrorism!

For some time now, in India, the ONLY thing one can do to save oneself from a very possible terrorist attack & destruction seems to be ‘BUYING A CAMERA’! Not just any camera, but, the CCTV one! In India, the CCTV Cam has become the in thing & the NEED!

At the fag end of December 2014, Church Street, in the central business district of  Bangalore, reverberated with the explosion of a tiny bomb, which was placed ‘cunningly’ near the pavement, near to a retro bar. The ‘efficient police teams’ reached the spot more than 30 minutes after the explosion & after a couple of hours, cordoned off the area, to PROTECT whatever ‘CLUE’ that is left!  

The police, immediately (Which means, after a day or two!) started to verify whether the CCTV Cams installed by the private firms dotting the area are working or not that they could collect some clues from them! To their SHOCK they found out that the camera @ the explosion spot, installed by the retro bar, was not functional! Their SHOCK was when most of the government installed CCTV cams are dying a DYSFUNTIONAL DEATH (DD!) @ various places in Bangalore, for at the least, more than a year!

One is FORCED to assume that it is the non functional PRIVATELY installed CCTV cams which are the real reasons behind the terrorist attack which took place @ Church Street, taking away a precious human life & all the PUBLICLY installed non functional CCTV cams are nothing but innocent in this matter! As it is the ‘PRIVATELY’ installed non functional cams which are the major & minor culprits, instigating the terrorists to install a ‘PRIVATELY’ designed crude bomb (May be ‘Out Sourced’, as is the fashion in the private domain!) near a ‘PRIVATLEY’ owned retro bar!  

A couple of days after the Church Street attack, the efficient police force of Bangalore gave strict directions  & orders to all the ‘PRIVATELY’ owned entities to install CCTV cameras in & around their establishments, while the ‘PUBLICLY’ put non functional CCTV cams & the public bodies which put these non functional CCTV cams there were allowed to wear a sad & swollen face, indicating the ‘supposed’ pains these non functional CCTV cams & their PUBLIC Installer Bodies suffer, due to the non functional PRIVATELY put cameras!
It is a terrorising fact that more than 800 crores have been spent to ‘camerafy’ Mumbai in the recent years; for Mumbai ‘camerafication’ is still going on is another interesting fact, spending crores! Of course, selling CCTV cams  is a BIG business, worth billions & Interested Parties (Ips!) are playing games with the Indian Public, publicly! And, who takes what , how much & why are ALWAYS unknown!

For Obama HOW MUCH Delhi spent (Of course, for security reasons!) is anybody’ guess! Hundreds of crores SHOULD have changed hands, for sure! Obama came, made hundreds of crore worth CCTV cameras installed & went back with the ‘PRESUMED THREAT’ avoided! The thanks SHOULD go to the hundreds of crores worth installed CCTV cams as JUST by their installation India has avoided any major terrorist attack or something alike, smartly!

Various ‘scientific studies’ have ‘found out’ & declared, in volumes (Always, ‘ONLY’ in the international science forums!), about the major breakthrough & improvement in the ground situation in the war torn Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq etc, as far as terrorism is concerned, after the installation of HUGE number of CCTV cameras on every sand dune & tree top!  Hence, CCTV cams are going to be installed, large scale, in all the railway stations, bus stands, cars, buses, on bikes & bicycles, on police persons, government officials, non government officials, thieves, CIDs, common man, rickshaw pullers of Calcutta, balloon sellers @ the hundreds of cultural festivals of India & others living inside the Indian boarders, in the fight against global terrorism!

To achieve this ambitious aim, HUGE amounts of bank loan to buy CCTV cameras are going to be given with the maximum liberalised schemes, with flexible & other sort of interest rates! Reputed institutions like the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, RBI, SBI, CBI etc are queuing up at the door steps of the customers to attract the CCTV cam buyer with their various attractive SCHEMES to purchase High Quality CCTV cams (Which are ‘ONLY’ available in the developed countries!) from abroad!    

CCTV cam on every street light post by 2020 is going to be declared the main aim of the government, throwing the age old & out dated Garibi Hatao by an outdated political philosophy out & welcoming in the new gen CCTV Cam Apnavo, Aathangavaadh Mittavo”! Government is planning (Without the help of a nonexistent Planning Commission!) to FORCEFULLY implement  A CCTV Cam For Every Person in India’ (CCTVCEPI!), dead or alive, programme by 2025! It is even rumoured that the Prime Minister is planning a CCTV Cam Dhan Yojana (PMCCTVCDY!) that every unaccounted & insignificant subject of his country get the oxygen like benefit of a CCTV cam! And, the listless & ununited opposition  is eagerly waiting for a CCTV Cam Scam (CCTVCS!) to better their already battered prospects!  

Various Think Tanks & NGOs in India, which are NOT receiving any ‘FUNDS’ from abroad are seriously planning the implementation of a CCTV Cam on every moving creature by 2155 or 2222 AD! And, it has come as a MAJOR BOOST for the Indian technology sector that the developed countries have obliged to hand over to India the Quality CCTV Camera making technologies by 3000 AD! And, reliable sources which don’t wish to be identified have disclosed that, till then, the cams will be imported directly from the west or assembled in India after importing the cams in parts from the west!

The common talk that the 2011 Mumbai terrorist attack which claimed 176 precious human lives could not be prevented despite enough CCTV cams being present in Mumbai, the Bangalore ATM attacker remains @ large despite being caught in the CCTV, various jewelleries, all over India, get looted despite their CCTV cams being in the working conditions etc SHOULD HAVE TO BE considered pure gossip & SHOULD BE dismissed out rightly as heresy and the fashionable Portuguese Inquisition reinstalled to TRY & FRY the heresy mongers!     

As SHOULD BE dismissed the utterly disappointing point of view that the terrorist attacks & Maoist attacks conducted systematically in various parts of the country is to ‘promote’ the awareness of the importance of CCTV Cams in one’s life & the price one has to pay if one fails to have , at the least, a basic CCTV Cam on the person!

It is to be CERTAINLY assumed that there weren’t enough CCTV cams installed in Paris to deter the terrorists from attacking the French magazine office & World Trade Centre bombing was due to insufficient number of CCTV cams installed & arranged on the Twin Towers!

We SHOULD promote voyeurism as the National Pastime that will help the already down west to recuperate from the desperate self created market conditions they are in, for some time now, as the valueless Indian rupee & Indians –‘Compared to the western currencies & men!!! - can & will buy enough Quality CCTV cams from the west to involve themselves in the National Pastime & for the fool proof protection from terrorists, Maoists, thieves, anti social elements etc!

Let’s promote the ‘Orwellian’ watching maniacs & states and promote a culture where all the people understand the ideas like voyeurism, voyeur, CCTV cam, terrorism protection, terror proof technologies etc from the day one of their entry into the CCTV Camerafied India! Let’s make it a fashion statement (‘Fashion Statement is ‘Never’ A Need! SHOULD BE dismissed immediately!) to have, at the least, a couple of CCTV Cams in front of your house signaling you are a significant & smart one & ‘NOT’ like the dumb & too insignificant one on the other side of the fence etc, despite the fact the CCTV cams are working or not!   

Let’s install, as a nation, CCTV cams in our living room, dining room, bed room, bathroom, toilets etc & stream it live 24/7 that we BE protected from any ‘prospective’ terrorist & Maoist attack! And, let us work for a nation where everyone move around with, at the least, a CCTV cam fitted on his or her person that bombs stop exploding, terrorists & Maoists stop attacking and people continue living well beyond a couple of centuries!

Let all the Indians & all those who come to India (To measure the standard of Indians living & other things!) understand the importance we  – The Newly Modernised Indians -  give to CCTV cams WHEN there are millions who silently cry for their own sub standard, petty & ‘not worth mentioning’ Roti, Kapada, Makaan! Let these insignificant millions while away time & forget the reality of their insignificant lives playing with the millions of non functional CCTV cams, thrown away by the ‘living’ Indians!

In The Name Of The All Powerful God ‘Rumour’!


It is heard that 'Speed Kills!' & Aptly So.....! But, in India 'Rumour Kills!'; if we go by what has been happening in Our Secular Democratic India, we would also say "Aptly So!" It is what all been happening in Our Democratic-Secular India for some time now, where Rumour kills much more than anything else in Secular India!

According to the Well Versed/Omnipresent/God Like (Remember "Our Work Is God's Work!" @ Karnataka Vidhan Sabha etc!) Authorities in India, 'Anything can happen in rumour, in India!' Here, in this ‘Secular Rumour Country’ (SRC!) one can lose life on account of rumour; get fired of a decade long job because of rumour; lose your gas connection due to this grand thing called rumour; lose your own land because of rumour; reach @ the fag end of the road in your ‘very personal’ relationships -which include marriage, love, family etc!- because of rumour; lose one's long lasting credibility because of rumour; have financial slavery because of rumour; lose all the opportunities in one’s life due to rumour; get free access to hatred because of rumour etc! And, now, another fantastic feather is added into this long list of super capabilities rumour has shown in Secular India i.e. it can also make thousands run away from where they have been for years because of this well efficient, omnipresent, well spread, well inculcated, well planned rumour!

India has applied to the UN to especially grant a special status to the nation with a Grand Title 'Rumour Nation' (With A Special Sanction For ‘Rumour’ To Kill, Destroy etc At Its Will!)! One is forced to think whether everything is rumour in India as well, as we -As we, the Secular Hindu or Indian!- are all well aware of the inimitable 'Sarwam Maya, Jagath Mithya!’ idea, which some sensible men found out 'in the Times of Non Secularism', when HINDUISM WAS THE ONLY 'TRUE' RELIGION OF BHARATH, as 'Bharath' itself is coming out of Hinduism!

Though, we, the True Bharatiya, got manipulated by various ‘Invading Religions’ (IRs) we can still remember what all were said in those Days of Universal Wisdom, when thousands, from all over the world, literally flowed into Bharath to have, at the least, a couple of droplets of wisdom it possessed! Nowhere, in those days, we find 'Secularism' even mentioned & taught in the ‘Immortal Universities of Nalanda, Taxila, Vikramsila’ etc! No one was taking classes there, giving PHDs on the subject 'Secularism' to all those who executed this false/illusory/non existent/non sustainable thing in their societies –and, we NEVER find those people educated in these Eternal Universities Of Wisdom practicing THIS ILLUSION in any part of the world where they came from!; as whatever taught in these great universities were ONLY relevant & possible things that the human beings who learn them get the benefits from! THEY NEVER TAUGHT THE STUDENTS TO TOLERATE EVERYTHING INCLUDING INTOLERANCE IN THE NAME OF SECULARISM!

The Bharatiya never knew even the word 'Secularism' till we 'SUPPOSEDLY' got our so called 'FREEDOM' –Freedom To The Illusory Idea Secularism!- in 1947! Secularism IS an illusion which 'may' work -if it works at all!- ONLY IF all the Indians become IRRELIGIOUS or OF ONE RELIGION, which, both, can NEVER HAPPEN; which means if one of these two things happens, then there is NO NECESSITY FOR SECULARISM! And, as this IS NOT THE CASE WITH INDIA -THE MODERN DAY BHARATH!- what we are doing IS FOLLOWING AN ILLUSION SACRIFICING WHAT WE BASICALLY ARE & WHAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE, THINKING THAT ONE DAY THIS MIRAGE WILL BRING FORTH WATER, WHICH IT WILL NEVER!

It is well known piece of knowledge that if one understands one's mistake or even BLUNDER one has committed, one has to change the track in such a way that the mistake or blunder STOP EXISTING! And, every one worth his or her salt knows that keeping oneself going on the illusory path despite knowing one has made a very serious mistake or blunder is REALLY THE STUFF OF GREAT IDIOTS WHO SLEEP ON FACTS & BELIEVE IN ILLUSIONS! Now, we, Indians, are steadily moving on the path of Illusion where the end result should be nothing other than Illusion itself!

If one thinks, one will be forced to understand that by 'Secularising Things' what we are doing IS 'FANATASISING THINGS' & 'TOLERATING INTOLERANCE', in the most stupid ways! Ofcourse, what we have gained Doing This Non Existent Foolishness all these 65 years after the so called Independence is there TO BE SEEN, HEARD & FELT - More religious things, more religious concessions, more religious tolerance, more religious bigotry, more religious fanaticism, more under development of person & personality, more fanatical threats & destruction, more tolerance of gruesome intolerance –The Worst Thing Ever Happened To India & Indians! - more fanatically oriented divisive groups, more separatists, more hatred of nonsensical nature, more chaos propagators, more disorders of all sorts, more self centred people & communities, more humanity destroyers,  more destruction along the religious lines, more vaporisation of humanity, more fear about one's own life or existence, more vaporisation of humility, more ignorance of facts & truths, more appeasement of ignorance & intolerance etc - all these things coming to 'Bharath' , the present day Secular India, from outside ‘the Lasting & Perennial Culture Of Bharath’, which has been here in existence for the last 6 to 7 thousand years!

Now a days, in Independent, Secular India, human beings die because of rumour; Kashmiri Pandits lost their land due to some rumours some 22 years back which they never got back; all hell broke loose in Bombay in 1992 because of some rumours; Gujarat riots happened because of some rumours; communal riots broke out & spread in various parts of the Secular Country, time & again, because of rumours, causing irreparable loses to life & properties; churches were bombed, burned & desecrated in various places of the Secular Country because of rumours; a good number of bombs exploded in various Indian Secular Cities because of rumours where the remote control & the bombs were made of rumours; a group of people in small & negligent number got life threatening threats because of rumours; Sikhs were hunted like anything, resulting in a large number of killings, in the aftermath of 1984 Indira Gandhi assassination because of rumours; Our Secular Parliament was bombed because of some rumours; Mumbai was devastated & 172 people were killed by rumours; and, now, the North Easterners are fleeing in thousands, from various ‘Secular Cities Of India’, because of rumours etc!

What the Secular Governments & the government machinery want us, the common people, understand is that all this priceless loss of human life & crores worth destruction of movable & immovable properties all these years after Independence & ALL HAPPENED BECAUSE OF NOTHING BUT RUMOUR! AND, THE BOMBS EXPLODED IN NUMBERLESS PLACES, KILLING HUNDREDS, IN INDIA, THE BULLETS FIRED FROM THE ASSASSINS’/KILLERS’ GUNS KILLING HUNDREDS AGAIN, THE FANATICAL ANGER & IGNORANCE WHICH DESTROYED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF CRORES OF INDIAN RUPEE WORTH PROPERTY ALL USED THE SAME MATERIAL AS THEIR BASE – RUMOUR; or else, they were just throwing ‘Rumour Bombs’, firing ‘Rumour Bullets’, wielding ‘Rumour Knives & Daggers’ and threatening & killing people with the pure & invariable Use Of Rumour AND RUMOUR ‘ONLY’, all these years! And, we, the Common Men of India, have to ‘Believe’ it, as it is stated by the ‘Truth All’ Governments & the ‘Truth All’ Government Machinery – “Satyameva Jayathe!”

Just rumours......., we –The Sensible Democratic Secularists, Who Never Think Emotionally & Insensibly, Even For A Second Of Our Lives!- all know pretty well about these rumours! But those who are always @ the receiving end of these rumours cant sit tight & stay cool saying that "All these things are just rumours”, as nobody has ever heard a story where A Life Lost In Rumour Getting Back Into Its Abode From Where It Exited Because Of Rumour, After the Rumour Is Extinguished or the destroyed property coming back into its original shape when the rumour mongers are apprehended by the all vigilant Secular Door keepers of Our Secular Country!

Here, in our Democratic Secular Country people can get killed & properties destroyed beyond repair by a simple, non existent thing called Rumour; & that is very special about this Secular Nation where The Omnipresent All Powerful Rumour God From Outside Rules! Let us continue living in Our ‘Secular’ India (As We, The Common Man Indian, Have Nowhere Else To Go), the country of the ‘Roaring Rumour God’ (RRG), who invaded ‘the Land Of The Ultimate Wisdom, Bharat’, by just spreading rumours of the deadliest kind –Like Secularism, Religious Co Existence, Religious Understanding Of Truth, Equality, Justice etc! - & has been keeping it in His Tightly Clenched Fist Of The Uncivilised Aborigine –‘ASAMSKRIT’ in Samskrutham or Samskrit! – For The Last 65 Years!

SORRIES FOR THE DEAD & MORE BULLSHIT FOR THE LIVING!

Bhopal Gas Tragedy ‘struck or (made) happened in 1984’, and the people of India, including the numerous central & state governments, have continuously been fighting for JUSTICE FOR THE DEAD – A very simple number of 25000+ Only! - & THE LIVING (LIVING DEAD?!)! After more than a quarter of a century, the case has ‘come to a naught’ (KNOT!?) & Our Great Investigators are still finding (even after quarter of a century!!!) thousands of ‘skeletons in the cupboards’ of thousands of people, ‘who were not even born at the time of the MAN-MADE DISASTER’!

Peruman Rail Disaster struck more than 20 years back taking scores of lives & the expert investigating team found out that it was all due to a Tornado, which came from nowhere & disappeared ( USING A SPACE SHIP OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT!) just after the business it came to do! The investigation report is NOW USED AS A TEXT BOOK IN SCOTLAND YARD, AS ‘A GREAT EXAMPLE OF HOW STUPID AN INVESTIGATION CAN BECOME’ ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!

Kashmir problem was created when Jawaharlal Nehru declared a unilateral ceasefire in the United Nations before taking back the usurped Indian Territory from our good old neighbour, Pakistan! Since then Indians have regularly been sacrificing their lives in & on Kashmir.....! A large number of investigations – READ ANALYSES!- have been spent into the ‘UNDERSTANDING OF THE KASHMIR ISSUE’ ALL THESE YEARS, all of them presenting with myriads of options! And, compensations are regularly sent to the victims of the ‘Kashmir Cause’!

Bombay Blasts of 1990s happened with scores of casualty & the loss of crores of rupees. There came Our Dear Great Investigators Of Yore & started their all-involved-all-finding mission of investigation! THEY FOUND OUT SOME THOUSANDS OF ‘VERY RELEVANT POINTS OF INFORMATION’ WHICH WERE ‘OF NO USE’! All the lost lives were never given back & THE LOST & DEAD REMAINED THE LOST & DEAD, TILL DATE!

Scores of Indians were lost in the Pak-Initiated & Promoted Kargil War. To find out the REASONS OF KARGIL, a lot of analysts & investigators have been SPENT! They got their own answers & reports & they even submitted them before the SO & SOs of the SO & SOs and OTHER SO & SOs! As a ceremony, compensations were sent to ....................(READ INNUMERABLE VICTIMS & MARTYRS!) & GROUPS OF INVESTIGATORS & ANALYSTS WERE KEPT READY FOR ANY FURTHER EVENTUALITY, 24x7!

The Indian Parliament attack was done ceremoniously by some good-intended people (From the Pak View Point!), and India lost a couple of people here as well! The investigators arrived on the scene after all the damage is done & declared that the attack was due to the negligence from the authorities, who ceremoniously & carelessly treated the warning signals (As has been happening from time immemorial in India, where all the warnings are thrown into the waste bin the very next second they are submitted and where the warning reports & warning signals are submitted or given ONLY to be thrown into the waste basket!) sent by the various intelligence agencies -who all did this stupid thing of ignoring security agency warnings, when exactly these warning reports were sent, who all are responsible for the security lapse etc are ceremoniously never told & were totally forgotten!- & the carelessness shown (BY WHOM? Is Never Mentioned!)!

Mumbai Attack (26/11) was well planned & well executed by the Pakistan-Based Forces, while India was caught off-guard once again and India lost around 200 of its precious human beings. Again the investigators appeared from nowhere & started the blame game, as usual. They pointed out what could have happened & what should have done to prevent what had already happened and what all misses & mistakes had been committed that this scale of a tragedy occurred etc! Sharp Analyses & Investigations (And of course, with the extremely valuable recommendations, suggestions etc) were done and the tragedy was swept under the carpet!

Around 50 people died @ Thekkady when the boat they travelled in the Periyar River capsized last year & the people who should have kept the life of those who come there for site-seeing & boat journey safe failed to do so & as they have done a million times DELIBERATELY FORGOT what at the least to be done to safeguard the human beings in the THEKKADY ATMOSPHERE! Swarms of Investigators landed there after the tragedy struck & found out numberless reasons from the Colour of the Water in Thekkady to the Design of the Shirt the boat driver worn on the fateful day!

Andhra Chief Minister died last year in an air plane crash of which a number of INVESTIGATIONS & ANALYSES WERE MADE! And, hundreds of reports were made qualitatively! The investigators found this, that and a million other things for the tragedy in which Andra Pradesh lost one of its greatest leaders. The great investigators also suggested some great & exquisitely intelligent measures by which ‘ANYBODY INTERESTED’ CAN SAVE ANOTHER CHIEF MINISTER ‘NEXT TIME’!

Then happened the Mangalore Aircraft Tragedy, which made all on board the ill-fated flight casualties....scores died in this tragedy too..... Sheer negligence from the authority’s side, shortness of the runway, fatal errors from the pilots & a million things were dug out by Our Dear Investigators who arrived after the tragedy! But, as usual, the Term ‘Authorities’ remained Undefined & Unnamed and the dead pilots never spoke in defense! (And the Investigators took the very next flight after their THREAD BARE ANALYSIS!)

Carlton Towers in Bangalore followed all these tragedies with great enthusiasm & there too a number of innocent persons lost their lives due to sheer negligence from the authority’s side, building owner’s side & most importantly FROM THE SIDE OF THE FIRE FIGHTERS, WHO ‘SUPPOSEDLY CAME THERE TO RESCUE’ THE PEOPLE TRAPPED IN THE FIRE-LIT, BURNING BUILDING! HERE TOO ‘THE SINFULLY NEGLIGENT AUTHORITIES & FIRE FIGHTERS REMAINED FACELESS & IDENTITYLESS & EVEN FIGURELESS’! Of course, Our Dear Investigators were there to find out who all erred & what could have been if that could have been THIS & this could have been THAT!

In India, Investigation (OR Scientific Analysis Of Any Disaster Happened!) means ‘thinking about what would have been & what would not have been after a tragedy where losses are severe & disastrous’..................where "WHAT IS TO BE" IS ALWAYS THE CASUALITY! In India, everything is fine & under perfect control till the moment something happens severely disastrous; and 'these somethings' happen quite often & quite effortlessly that India has become A MUCH HAPPENING PLACE!

It is very pathetic to know that even after more than 62 years of independence India & Indians have FAILED MISERABLY TO LEARN such simple things as “Prevention is better than cure”, “A stitch in time saves nine!” etc! Any potentially problematic situation in India is always 'under consideration & analysis' when it is of common men & these "under consideration' can go on for ever & ever till eternity! And, Indians always like to learn things ONLY BY GOING THROUGH TRAGEDIES, SUFFERING LIKE ANYTHING & LOSING THINGS WHICH CAN NEVER BE COMPENSATED! It is also interesting to know that this learning lasts only for a couple of moments that THEY CAN LEARN THE SAME THING AGAIN BY GOING THROUGH ALL THE TRAGIC THINGS THEY HAVE ALREADY GONE THROUGH A MILLION TIMES, AGAIN!

It is really great of all the Indians that they are very thankful IF THEY GET SORRIES FOR THE DEAD - THEY ARE VERY PROFICIENT IN THIS KIND OF EXCHANGE! - as they know pretty well that ALL THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DEAD & LOST ARE COMPENSATED BY ‘GIVING BACK THEIR LOST LIVES’& INDIANS HAVE 9 LIVES! But the only things they ardently insist on are Investigators & Investigations after every disaster! Who thinks there are no investigators in 105 crores of Indians, who can find out a million reasons for any type of tragedy?!

We Got To Stand Together!

When the terrorists struck Bombay he was not aware of that; he was thinking about the Hartal which was going to be celebrated
in his God's Own Country! He was thinking about the chances of another couple of Hartals, the National Festival of the Keralites!
But, when he got the newspaper next morning, he new some terrorists had holed up in some hotels in Bombay and they had killed
more than 100 people and injured more than 300 people.

He eagerly devoured what was written about the terrorists and sighed heavily reading there were no Malayalee Casualties,
which was specified by the local daily. He read about the boat which came from the Porbunder Harbour, Hotel Taj, Oberoi,
CRT, Nariman House(with no mention about why Nariman House got attacked, as somebody wanted to cover the reason
behind the attack on it) and some other places. He re read to confirm that there were no Malayalee casualties; he had been
doing this 'Confirmation' ever since Iraq invaded Quwait, when the local dailies faught with one another to 'Inform' people that
there were no Malayalee casualties! In those days, he even thought how accurately Iraquees make the Malayalees move away
from the places they were going to bomb, and how concerned the Iraquees were about the Malayalees; at the least it seemed so,
by the reportage of the Malayalam Dailies, which regularly competed to Inform that there were No Malayalee Casualties, day in and day out!

The next day he read the newspaper to find out that there were Malayalee casualties. Someone died in Taj hotel in the massacre
was a Malayalee, from another district. He thought, "There are no casualties from Our District"; and read on the gruesome methods
adapted by the terrorists, in the killing of the hapless and innocent victims. When he read The NewYork Times he understood that
the persons (If they can be called persons at all) who did this heinous act were an "Audacious Group of Gunmen" and they were just "Militants fighting for the disputed land of Kashmir". He failed to understand why, when the terror strikes America it is Terrorism and when the same happens in India it becomes Militancy and the cold blooded terrorists become "A Group of Audacious Gunmen"!

The very next day the newspaper informed him that one of the Malayalees died in the Bombay Terror Attack was from his own district; he read about the unlucky fellow's life history and about his family; he thought no one from His Own Village was there......A thought of relief passed through his mind......He continued to read that India had been listed in the top 20 dangerous places to visit by 'One of the Most Intelligent and Sane U.K news papers'; he failed to recollect wheather this same Sane Newspaper listed America,when it had its own 9/11 and U.K, when the Irish Terror reigned Briton in the seventies and eighties, among the top twenty dangerous places to visit.

When the next day arrived, the newspaper informed that there was another Malayalee in the casualty list and he was from His Own Village;he was almost shocked to read the familiar name of the man from his village; he remembered some of those incidents of past where the martyred man was involved and a couple of occasions when he met him, in person; but he had a relieving thought that none of His Own Family Memebers had become a casualty and No Relative has been lost in the act of terror....

What he and all the people who read newspapers and gathered pieces of information, from each and every nook and corner of India,
who sighed with relief as they learned no one of their close relatives or family members were casualties of the Bombay terror attack,forget is each and every innocent person killed by those heartless terrorists are "Somebody Else' Close Relative or Someone Else' Family Member" and more than 150 precious and very much loved lives had been extinguished in a reckless act of terror.It is time each and every Indian stand, in every sense, very close to the bereaved families, who had lost what each of those families had considered the dearest in their lives. It is time, we all Indians think and act in the best interest of the Nation and become the boundless oceans of empathy towards those who had lost what they had cherished and loved best in thier lives! Let us all keep the memories of all those precious lives lost in the heinous act of terrorism, in our hearts, and stand above all the cast and creed and politics and be the brothers and sisters to those families who are deep in the oceans of grief.......Let Us Be The True Indians......Once & For All...!
