My brother luckily escaped one in 2008 and it hurts to accept the fact that the people responsible are nothing more than a bunch of morons who have mastered the game of passing the buck! <br /><br />Yesterday a friend's friend died! Since no flesh of hers is left there wont be any last rites!<br /><br />We are nothing more than sitting ducks to terror and terrorists! Sigh! <br /><br />Will watch this space more often!

But t...Firstly, thanks for going through the post. But there is something I'd like to clarify. There was intel given to the govt on the 19th and 20th of February while the blast took place on 21st. The info was passed on as a general message which the Mr. Kiran Kumar Reddy said and I quote "ordinary messages which come now and then". These statements do frustrate the public(don'y they?). Let me take you back to when Gokul chat n Lumbini park were in ruins. Dilsukhnagar was the next most feared area and there have been rumours and threats in the area that were dealt with. So why wasn't a single constable there in the jam packd jn? Cynism is not what I intend to express. Sorrow. This is what brings out the anguish and a cynic out of us. And yes, I do try to trust the govt and having had an acceptable amount of education, I do recognize the fact that loathing the govt. is pointless. But a huge network of ministers, police, informers and protection forces on the lookout, i believe there room for improvement. And yes, these mishaps bring the cynic in me, in many others and as I concluded, we are helpless.Manojhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428923126394354758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2776699517253746212.post-85789083766960981092013-02-22T15:45:51.122+05:302013-02-22T15:45:51.122+05:30Cynicism and a feeling of despair is what most of ...Cynicism and a feeling of despair is what most of us tend to express whenever such incidents happen.There are many( in fact scores of them)out there expressing the same anguish and helplessness every time. The need of the hour is an introspection as to why we fall prey to such heinous acts time and again. If beefing up intelligence and security is all what the government has to do to prevent the incidents it is a near impossible thing given the size and population of the country with the kind of logistics problem we have. Let us forget the impracticality of the above and assume the government could in a hypothetical setup have a 100 percent success rate in avoiding terror attacks it is still not enough. Because terrorism is something beyond an LED attached to a cycle that would in a fraction of second create the havoc it intends to. Terrorism is that mindset that could be dormant but alive always waiting for a moment to strike back at you. Hence the duty of the government and also the people equally is to address the grievances of the marginalized sections of the society which due to persistent negligence and to an extent also due to systematic oppression from elements within the state. It is this lethal catalyst that should be the primary concern. Otherwise with cynicism and the attitude of blaming the government for everything without fulfilling the obligations we ought to in this regard nothing would really change. If our attitude remains the same God forbid, the day when tiffin boxes in crowded buses become instruments of terror is not far away.Oraclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05309050179530137519noreply@blogger.com
