War on Mumbai – All the terrorists dead - after 57 hours!

Indians world-over, are very angry with the political, administrative, and all the corrupt systems prevailing in the country, which is truly responsible for this national shame. Handful of terrorists has brought the country to its knees. The question is: From where the terrorists got the stock of arms/ammunitions to keep the NSGs at bay for 57 hours? For over 57 hours, more than a billion of Indians world-over, are watching the live-coverage with their heads down in shame. The political system is “impotent”.

The Indians are still taking all this shame lying down! All appreciated the Times-Now channel for refusing to entertain politicians visiting the terror sites showing lip-sympathy.

I strongly feel that for next three days, all the media (press & TV) should boycott completely all the speeches the sympathies likely to be expressed by these politicians. These are purely vote catching gimmicks which on one should not support. How the government at Delhi can have talks with the perpetrators of the very crimes, that too at the time it is being committed on Indian soil? It is a shame. However, the Indians should be proud of their armed forces. They should feel safe only in the hands of their elite NSGs. Hats-off to them.

These types of situations are likely to occur in the future also. The need of the hour is to develop Crisis Infrastructure (as Ratan Tata says) to manage these types of emergency situations. The infrastructure should be in place at all levels - local, regional, state and national level, so that the consequences are kept to minimum. What can not be prevented - be prepared for.
