It took me three days before I could get into any sort of a mood to type. The last week has been very sad. I was somehow feeling very depressed even though its the nth time there have been attacks on India this year. This attack is somehow looking different, say even compared to the attack on the Parliment, since it targets the very points that the emerging India takes pride in. The coordinated attack is so unlike the serial bombings (which were more of a sleuth attack) as it shows that we are helpless in every aspect. It also shows how easy is it for a person to walk into any place he wants and create panic there. It also shows how porous the borders are if a group of people could get into a speed boat and enter the ports so freely.
Power, Money and Vote bank (thus Religion) seem to be the only things that the neta's care about and Im feeling vulnerable that we are sitting in a country where there is no value to our lives. There is no solution in sight and even worse, no attempt at making the situation any better. And we are flanked by two neighbours, one of whom is on the way to crush us with their economic growth and progress and the other who is hell bent on jumping off the cliff while dragging us along with it.
More importantly, this attack brings in one major change, it will brand India as very unsafe for every foreigner; includes investors, business people, sports persons and tourists.
It is a sad and disgusting situation to be in...
In the meantime, one article caught my eye. I have cut and pasted the article here, take a look and you will realize that the politicians care about nothing and you will also realize why the new generation of leaders are not any different.
And then the Maharashtra CM taking along Ram Gopal Varma (RGV) to the site for a first hand inspection.
Aah, for crying out loud, is anyone listening to the country and what it needs ?
