INDIA EXPOSED.
Post 26/11 attack has exposed India's weakness & inability to anticipate terror strike of such an large scale conspired by the foreign elements on the Indian soil. Foreign elements has created havoc in the country time and again that has been completely forgotten or ignored. In fact over the last few years there was surprisingly attack in almost 15 major cities around the country. Amidst all the terror strike committed on Indian soil, the one that occurred at Mumbai was the most heinous and dreadful. It was an attack that had been well planned and people trained like combats for the maximum damage and casualty. But at this juncture the efforts of our Policemen, NSG commando's are worthy of praise for the courage taken in order to eliminate the terrorist from the Hotels ensuring that as minimum of hostages were lost.
The last several years has been a witness to the rise of Extremist terrorism seen in our soil for the very first time. Surprisingly the enemy we were tackling for the last few decades just at the borders are no more a threat than the ones seen attacking us at the heart of the country. The account of lost lives & damaged infrastructure has been monumental arising from terrorist strike across the country. But whats surprises me is the astronomical failure of the government in repeatedly avoiding occurrence of such a attacks on the society.
The Joker in the movie The Dark Knight comments, When citizens are hurt by criminals, there isn't much fear in the society, where in if a high profile individual is targeted the society is inflated with tension. Imagine the similar type of response if had been possible after any bomb attacks that had been carried out earlier I guessed there would have been every possibility the society & the government would have taken more proactive steps.
Apart from planned training, brainwashing, religious intolerance, unprofessional, non committed, careless and irresponsible bureaucrats & politicians are responsible for the messy situation the country has landed into. The immediate consequence could be soon seen by rolling heads in the government incapable of handling the position they represented. So were the long list of high profile ministers letting lose & cheap words unworthy of there caliber and position, invoking the wrath of people across the country. Colossal failure of the country was exposed when a bunch of 10 armed people took the country at ransom for more than 60 hours. The collective failure of every unit was easily witnessed during the horrendous event. The Media had it own share of blame to carry which covered the interviews of the elite suffered but neglected the poor traveling at the other heritage center CST. Aam Aadmi voice was lost in oblivion where in the elite were exclusively covered even at their homes. The news channel and its anchors were busy showing the charred tables & broken crockery at the Hotels. While others were showcasing the live actions taken by the NSG commandos, forgetting that the greatest disaster that occurred at Munich 1972 Olympics was primarily due to live telecast of armed action by snipers that were viewed by the terrorist and who in turn finally killed the 11 athletes.
The dastardly attack has completely exposed our country inability to take proactive decision on preventing of any such future possible attack. Desperate situation doesn't require desperate response. Polarized society will only end up weakening the momentum require to solve the crisis. One thing for sure for me is that series of such attack has clearly shown us all of that, We might be a Soft Individuals, But we have also become a Soft Target.
