Post-Diwali Blast@Guwahati

30th October 2008...People in India were busy with their scheduled works after the diwali vacation. The same was true for the people in Guwahati(the capital city of Assam) also. Nobody could even imagine that something was going to happen that day in their beloved city which no one ever witnessed. Yes your guess is correct; I am talking about the 10-30 blast in Assam which took at least 100 lives leaving more than 500 injured.Guwahati suffered the most including other places in Assam like Kokrajhar, Barpeta Road, Bongaingaon. In all the places the blasts occurred within half an hour if I am not wrong. Although people in a disturbed, fear-filled state like Assam are used to the incidents like bomb blast along with many such horrible things yet the recent blasts were the most powerful as well as most tragic. According to my friend when the blast occurred in Ganeshguri area near the car parking the 10 auto rickshaws standing there started burning simultaneously along with other vehicles. The flyover also got a big hole in it. The intensity was so high that many of the victims' dead bodies were just a mixture of ashes, bones, teeth etc. One person from my district in Assam has been identified as a victim with some bones, teeth found on the spot and a gold ring which he used to wear. Its extremely horrible. I dont care or dont wanna say anything regarding who are behind blasts as classification of terrorists doesnt save the common people from these heinous activities. These kinds of problems are not new in India. People in India have been witnessing these since years. But due to various reasons which I dont know no strict actions seem to be taken. At this point I can give one example. In the last six months according to the report there were 87 blasts in India. And Intelligence report says in many of those blasts (including those in Assam) some Bangladesh based Islamic outfits are behind. In spite of this our Government never tries to take action against crores of illegal Bangladeshis most of whom are in North-East. It has been warned a number of times how these illegal migrant may change the entire demography of the country etc. But due to vote bank policies of the Government nothing has been done till now.
Its interesting to mention that India is one of the fastest growing economy in the world, it has recently signed the 123 Agreement with the US which allows India to buy Nuke Fuels from NSG for civilian purposes, India has recently successfully launched its lunar exploration satellite Chandrayaan I into the space..and many more good things. I know these good things happening in our country keep those shitty things like bomb blasts etc out of the focus most of the time. Everytime a bomb blast occurs, many people die and from the next day people forget about it and get busy with their daily lives.They have no other options as they have to get back to their work for their survival. But if strict actions are not taken by the Government regarding these Islamic outfits operating inside the territory the time is not very far when their joint operation throughout the country will make our country collapse.
