here's my experience should any of you care to read:
12 noon Wednesday Nov 26- a call from a friend in Toronto informs me that Mumbai is under terrorist attack. My mind races as I immediately think of my wife who is visiting Mumbai. I cut my friend midway and immediately dial my wife's mobile number but no answer! It goes to voice message. I frantically dial again and again to no avail.
I break out in a sweat totally unable to focus on what to do next. I call my brother who lives in Mumbai in Cuffe Parade, right smack in the war zone, so to speak. I get through. He informs me Mumbai is under siege with several terrorists creating mayhem by machine- gunning everybody in their way. I am totally frozen, shocked beyond any words can describe. My cell falls from my hands as I expect the worst. Slowly regaining composure, I pick up the phone and ask him where my wife is, my hand now trembling. He informs me that she left his home to go visit her aunt in Kemp's Corner. I cut the phone again and dial my wife's aunt. No answer!
The whole world crumbles around me as within seconds my mind flashes through the most momentous moments of my 19 years of marriage and tears roll down my cheeks as I think that life as I knew it had come to an end and then my mind goes blank as I shudder and shiver. I am not one given to cuss words, but all of a sudden I burst into the foulest language possible against all terrorists yelling the vilest profanity possible into the air. Anyone who saw me then would have thought I was a candidate for the mental institutions.
I call my brother again. He informs me that the swankiest hotels of South Mumbai, The Taj and the Oberoi were in the hands of terrorists. Knowing that my wife enjoys going to the Taj, where we got married, I was pretty sure she had gone there with her aunt's family and that she was held captive. In total consternation, I let out a loud cry of super anguish. This is the end, I think, and I curse all terrorists again. I hang up and just curl up into a foetal position.
I then call my wife's cell and aunt's number over and over again to no avail and then suddenly a call from an unknown number that looks like an Indian cell number flashes on my cell. I jam my finger on my cell's green pad and on the other end I hear the sweet, sweet voice of my wife, calling me from her cousin's cell, saying "I am allright…".I don't hear the rest of what she says as again 19 years of marriage flashes across my inward eye. Just hearing her voice is like manna! I heave a great sigh of relief!
She then tells me how she had gone out with her cousin for coffee at Chowpatty and heard shots and then police vehicles with their sirens on zoomed past her. It wasn't till they hurried to her aunt's home and put on the TV did they find out what was happening.
She then informs me that my cousin and her daughter who are visiting Mumbai are trapped in the Oberoi on the 29th floor while the terrorists were on the 19th.Again, another shot of apprehension, as my cousin and I had lived under the same roof when we were young. Once again, memories of those days shoot through my mind.
Subsequently, my brother was in constant touch with them vide cell phones and kept informing me that they were alright, but low on supplies- only juices and some nuts. News of what was transpiring in the hotel was very sketchy. None of the newswires had anything concrete to convey and locked in their room, scared to venture out, our relatives couldn't even tell us about the situation unravelling outside. Thankfully after two days when the commandos secured the Oberoi, they were released and made way to their sister's place. The whole harrowing and tense situation had come to an end. Or had it?
The trauma of these events will forever be etched in our minds.
While the whole horrific situation was being played out, I couldn't help but think of the time I spent in Mumbai and how in the good old days everything was so simple. Today everything is so brazen. There is a total lack of propriety. For some twisted reason, certain people have taken it upon themselves to wreak havoc throughout the world. Despite the fact that no cowardly attacks by crazed terrorists can break the great undying spirit of the Maximum City known as Mumbai, the Indian government must take strong steps to prevent such atrocious and malicious attacks from happening again, not just in Mumbai but anywhere in India. This must be a high priority item on its agenda. The government must take it upon themselves to break the backs of these demented personalities.

I was wondering when Con.. Rice was in India regarding Mumbai Attack and had talk with our leaders - so much tuff talk from both side India as well as US ( con. Rice)
i was waiting so desperately to get response after she meet up with Paki's Leader.
AND HERE U GO - AS WHAT I HAVE ACCEPTED - SHE ASKED INDIA NOT TO TAKE ANY STEPS - means NOW US IS BACK STABBING US AS USUAL AND ASKING INDIA TO DO NOTHING.
now, lets see how our leader REACT TO THAT ?

May be Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab & Hariyana should separate from India. Delhi has failed to protect Indians. Why is rest of India fighting Kashmir battle?
