Over A Week has Past To The Most Horrific Incident That Any Mumabiite would Have ever Imagined. . Most Of Us May Still be In A State Of Shock Or Rather In A state Of Disbelief. .
What Basically Shocked the Mumbaikers I believe Is Not The Terrorist Attack. . (Most Of Us Have Become Habitual To The News Of The Frequent Blasts. . Havent We ??)
Its The Kind Of Attack That We Were Shocked About . . Never Before Had this Kind Of An Incident Been witnessed. . I'm Sure Not Much Has To Be Said About Those Dreaded 59 Hrs As It Probably Had Almost Every Soul In The Country Glued To their television Sets Every Moment Every Second . . Just Waiting For It All to End. .
And When It Actually Ended . .What Followed Is What Makes Me Think. . Who Should Actually be Blamed For This whole Drama. .
Starting With the Politicians who Took Full Advantage Of This Situation. . Some In Blaming The Opposition. . Some going to visit The Survivors Or The Rest Few Who Wasted No Time And landed up at the Taj Or The Trident While The Attack Was Still On . . (Of course All Of Them Were Still with their Z-Security). .
What Surprised Me Was That even Before the Taj Was Cleared Of All The Terrorist , Hoardings And Posters Had Already Been Put Up Across Mumbai With The Political Party And Their Representative Names In Bold and the Pictures Of The Martyrs who Lost their Lives In The Unfortunate Incident. .
Then Next To Be Blamed Had to Be the Police Department Who turned A deaf Ear To All The Warnings that The Intelligence Department Claims To Have Given the Police Authorities about A probable Terrorist Attack On Mumbai. . Some News channels Even Reported The fisherman , who Reside In the Colaba Fisherman Villages , Having Informed The Local Policemen About some Unusual Visitors That They Had Observed But No Action Was Taken . .
But Then Again I feel It Is We People Who Are To Be Blamed . . (Wondering Why???)
Well The Reason Is the Answer To This Question? ? How Many Of us Would Approve Of Being Checked Or Frisked By The Security Men When about To Enter A 5-Star Hotel. . ? ?
Needless To Say I Myself Would Never Want To Be Take Through A security Check While Entering A 5-star. . But After this Incident I'm Sure Most Of Us would Be Forced To Give It A thought. .
And Finally I Believe that Now Is Not The time to play A blame Game But to Take The Necessary Actions to Avoid Such Incidents Happening Again. .
And Not To Forget If We All Could Just Give A Moment To Pray For the Well Being Of The Families who Have Lost Their Loved Ones. .

How I Almost Got " SIX PACKS " . .
Yup That's Right. . I was One of The Few Who Got caught On With The Hype Of getting Six Pack Abs. . For Those Unaware Of what I'm talking About. .
Remember SRK in Dard-E-Disco. .
No That It Had To Stop At SRK. . Every Big Screen Actor Suddenly Started Flaunting Their Perfectly Shaped Abs On Screen. . I Even Saw A television Actor doing A shirtless Act And Showing Off On a Reality Show . .
So One Fine Day Even I got A Thought Of Getting My Personal Set Of Six Packs. . And My Trainer At The Gym Said With the Kind Of Body Structure That I have It Would Not Be That Difficult For Me To Get My Abdomen Shaped. . . (Not Kidding . . He Actually Said It . .)
So I started With a Routine That My Trainer Gave which Included A couple Of Sets Of Crunches Followed By A little Running On the Tread-mill. . Which I Followed For The First Week With Full Dedication. .
(The Pictures Of John Abraham For His Latest Film that Got Published In the Paper Only Made Me Work More Harder. .)
Then A few Days Back My trainer Suggested Me a Strict Diet That Had to Be followed For The Next. . Probably Two Months. . . The Diet Included Soups , Salads , Egg Whites , Fruits And All the Possible Low Fat Recipe's. .
For Making This Diet A reality I would Need Actually Need A Personal Cook And Probably Even A separate Kitchen. .
(And Give Up All My Favorite Dishes. . Which Are Not Technically even A Bit Close To Low Fat. . .)
And Also When It Comes To Having Meals . . My Family Is Not That Concerned About My Six Pack Abs Then They Are About Finishing Every Grain Of Rice so That there Are No leftovers. .
(Yup That's Right. . And Don't You Act Like I'm the Only One With Whom This Happens. .)
And Then . . I thought That If Everyone Would Start Getting Perfectly Shaped 6 Pack Abs There Would Be No One To Be compared With . . Like What I'm Trying To Say Is that With The Same Kind of Body We Would All look Like Ants. .Wont We???
And So After A lot Of Thinking I decided To Give Up My Dream Of Getting The Perfect Abdomen. .
Just So that There Would there would Be Something Special About Our Tinsel Town Stars . .

PREZ'S RULE IN MUMBAI!!....
Following the recent happenings in the city , the opposition leaders have demanded the presidents rule in Maharashtra for those who dont understand the concept ..well,it means that the mumbai government will be dismissed and the president will be directly handling the state..
such a demand was made after a series of misconduct against the north indians...
a 25 year old lad was killed in an encounter by the mumbai police after he hijacked a BEST bus in the broad daylight and was here with the mission to teach a lesson to the MNS head...(the media said so)..
then the next incident was when a group of north indians were beaten up for occupying the window seats in the train!!
these incidents have acted like catalyst in arising such demands..
the opposition have asked not only for the prez rule but also asked for the arrest of Raj Thackray under national security act..
Lalu Prasad yadav has threatened to stop the rail projects in mumbai if the mumbai government in not dismissed...
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Lok Janshakti Party leader Ramvilas Paswan and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati are supporting the demands made by lalu prasad..
he has also openly criticized Maharashtra CM Vilasrao Deshmukh for not being capable enouh to control the state ..
deputy CM RRpatil has retorted back by saying"If stray hooliganism of a handful of hotheads be the excuse for demanding President's Rule in Maharashtra, then states like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar should be permanently placed under Delhi rule"...
my opinion
most definitely prez rule is not gonna be applicable in mumbai ever!
maharashtra is and will be managed well and fine under the present government ..we dont need any suggestion from anyone!
mumbai has managed to bounce back time and again..this time wont be an exception!

What Was He Thinking. . ??
Mr Rahul Raj . . .What Were U thinking. . ???
The Only Question in every one's mind is that Was the encounter needed ? ? ? Well if u ask me I have reasons on why it was needed and also why it wasn't . .(Let me be political over here. .)
I mean What was that guy thinking. .that he is gonna get a gun, hijack a bus in broad daylight , and to top it all point out the gun to the Mumbai police and get away with it. . I Mean With This Kind of Protest He was surely not gonna get any thing less than an encounter. .
And soon after the whole incident got over the media started pointing out to why the police had to kill Rahul when the could have easily capture him. . The same media would have been the first ones to blame the police just in case Rahul would have shot at anyone before them taking any action. .
It was funny When Some people who know Rahul commented that he was a very innocent guy and he would not have shot anyone. . The funniest of them all was the statement given by his dad who stated " He was Just Holding a small weapon and not an AK47 ". . (So were the cops supposed to wait till he gets an AK47 the next time. . ) Well if Being the so called Innocent person that he was , if he had the silly courage of pointing the gun on the public and the cops , there was a sure shot possibility of him even killing anyone.. .
Well personally if i were to give it another thought i feel what the police could have done is shot him in his legs or hands so that they could have got him unconscious and stopped the whole drama. . but that does not mean we can blame the mumbai police for all that has happened. .
I mean The Police followed what is mentioned in the law as a private self defence and did their job. . This incident If nothing else has certainly set an example for all the people who would even think of repeating such an incident. .(My Opinion. ! !)
Whatever Said Or Written . . The bottom line Would Always Be that One Guy lost his life and what he left behind is another event that the political parties are cashing on. . And for the public, the few who were present in the bus would have a tale to tell others all their lives and Most of us would even forget his name as soon as the Diwali holidays get over and we get started with our respective lives. .
This Is What Rightly is the Spirit Of Mumbai ??? . . Isn't It ??
