Bombay Blast
Anushodhak Started conversation Aug 26, 2003
I was panicky and hated it, when I saw the news on London Victoria station. My brothers, in-laws, friends are there in Bombay, I was a bit concerned about their safety.
After coming home we spent hours on internet reading all news sites and reaction of our fellow country men/ women. Reaction is mixed as blame game is on, public is blaming politicians and Islamic fundamentalists.
I am sorry for those who died and for their relatives. I wish I could do something instead sitting here, mourning and speculating. I also want to blame politicians for sitting idle and not attacking terrorist camps in POK.
Here is what a friend wrote in her mail:
As far as bombs are concerned we mumbaikars are getting immune to its fear factor. But it still scare me , I don't know where a bomb is waiting for me. There was a bomb blast in the bus I use to commute daily to the office. There was a bomb blast in the 1st class ladies compartment which is again is the daily routine. There are no thoughts on it. I am immune to it. After 2 months there will be another blast another set of causalities and after another couple of weeks everyone will forget about it. The irony is either get use to of it or just give up leave the very brilliant city and settle down in some quite city
