Terror and aftermath

We all know about the 26/11 Bombay terrorist attack, First of all it was an attack on entire India and its nationals and not only on Mumbai. 

Now after 2 weeks, what have we learnt?

Let’s start by politicians

1. BJP is trying to make a political agenda out of this attack
2. Congress , who did ‘act’ by removing Home minister of India and chief minister of Maharashtra , but what’s more comical is , it took more then 7 days for ‘high command’ to decide who will be the next CM. the delay was to make sure that the new CM is a Marathi and gets a vote bank in the next election.
3. And there are other parties which who are greater culprits

 Police

a.       Police is doing a good job, but they are hampered by the lack of proper training and the proper equipments. And to top it corruption!!

b.      What irks me is the leak of information to ‘media’ , why do police need to share each and every detail on investigation to media?  Let’s have media briefing in which the information required to be disclosed should be disclosed.

c.       Disclosing the CCTC footage of Taj when terrorists were inside hotel should have been avoided by police. I mean what are you going to gain now by disclosing these things to media? I believe these information’s should be purely confidential and should be used to investigate and not put for exhibition

Media

a.       Media is still showing the same pictures of the attack again and again and then is parallelly running a show on how to over come the trauma of terror. Can the media stop showing the pictures of Taj in flames or the pictures of CST station floor covered in blood?

b.      Instead of having the big fights or face the nations, or showing that some TV channels has ‘warned’ govt by bringing some piece of wood through the sea again and again, why cant the media play a constructive role here?

c.       The most funny and irritating part is that media acting as our neighboring country from where terrorists came. There are some PIL’s floating around to limit the information media should broadcast about the security force’s plans and actions during these attacks(which I completely agree) . Now when this point is brought up, our media wants “Proof”(so does our neighboring country) that their live broadcast has put the life of security personnel and guests in hotel at risk. What do you want? Bring back one of the dead terrorist and ask him if he was watching the live news and was he using the information passed on by these news channels?

People

a.       All of us are living in fear and in anger, fear because these things can happen again and to anyone and anger because govt is not doing anything (other then playing vote bank politics)  

b.      We have to accept that we are to blame for the condition today, after all who has selected these politicians? Lets be more responsible.

 

Media in India has a huge role and has played that role to success in more then occasion, what we need now is media playing an important role in exposing these political parties and their corrupt agendas.  And bringing the true pictures of these politicians.

People on other hand should know more about the political representatives , learn about the candidates you are going to vote, choose the right candidate who you feel could bring in the change required and please vote!!
