Remembering 26-11

Today is the first anniversary of the most horrible terrorist attack not only in Bombay, but in the entire country which killed around two hundred people including a few foreigners. Although after that incident no such major terrorist attacks have happened so far, it's difficult to comment on how much India has learned from it and how much improvement on the internal security have taken place. I still feel somehow, our security forces are not well-equipped although a specialized commandos have been deployed in Bombay almost after one year of 26-11 to prevent further attacks. I also doubt if the victims got enough compensations from the Government. Needless to talk about the culprits behind this attack, no punishment has been given so far, the trials are going on in a never-ending way. It seems unlikely that Indian judiciary system will award them capital punishments keeping an eye on the fact that many such terrorists like Afzal Guru (behind parliament attacks) are still alive and may be will be freed under Kandahar Airline hijack situations. Its really frustrating for the common Indian citizen to see such stupid things happening in the country, mass murderers are kept alive and freed to invite more situations where the common public have to suffer. Anyway I pray for all the victims as well as their families on the occasion of 1st anniversary of 26-11 and just hope Bombay would never suffer like this.
