Mumbai ,is most prone to terrorists attacks, bomb blast. There was a seige of explosions and firing , on Wednesday ,26/Nov/2008.
Hotels, Hospitals, were the targets of the offenders.
Mumbai is still burning.
The imperious Taj ,is on fire.
The hostages are mostly foreigners.
The common man ,is at risk, to cross the roads., to go to hospitals, to proceed to the office, to venture out to buy vegetables and grocery.
Children are groping in fear.
The big question in our mind is not ,What will happen tomorrow? ,but what will happen the next minute.
Today, Mumbai has woken up , from its disturbed sleep.
Tomorrow , it will resume its activities.
Can we call it stoicism ? or shall we term it helplessness.?
Life goes on.
“Men may come ,
Men may go,’
Mumbai goes on forever .
Mumbai can be affably addressed as “No boy”- no nonsense boy.
