on this day, 29th of november 2008, i sit down to write.. to salute the brave men like hemant karkare and unnikrishnan who sacrificed their lives for the sake of safety and for our nation..
and the NSG commandos..the real unsung heroes of the whole episode.. they went in with no assurance of their lives..they went in with just one purpose: to rescue the hostages and eliminate the terrorists...
i hang my head in shame..
to live in a country where we call ourselves "a democratic country"..where there is no real order..where religion and caste play a major role in the result of elections..where allthough we may emerge as an economic superpower , we are also emerging as a country where terrorism and blasts become order of the day...
at the same time i feel proud to have Brave Men in our country who are ready to sacrifice their lives for us.. who went out of their way because they knew their job..they had an operation in hand and hostages to rescue..
but we know..
tomorrow..it'll all be forgotten.
today the media will glorify the Brave Men, in a few days, back to square one..
politicians will go around asking for votes blaming the current party for all this..
we never learn from our mistakes..
we need to listen to those thousand voices which are hushed everytime they ask for a reform..everytime they ask for secuirty..
we have to take a pledge..
we have to learn..
we have to celebrate our heroes..they deserve it more than anyone of us..
and on this day, my heart goes out to all those families who lost their dear ones ...
it pains..
not only for them, but the whole country is in pain..
