A Tribute to the Heroes of the 26/11 Mumbai Terror attacks
Saluting the 26/11 Martyrs
26/11 2008,
will go down as one of the most unfortunate days
in the Indian as well as the World history, as a bunch of
terrorists went on a killing spree, killing innocent
civilians in Mumbai, the financial capital of India.
A year after the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai
the wounds are still afresh in the Nations mind.
The way the brutal attacks were carried out in Mumbai
said everything about the inhuman nature of the
terrorists, as they killed atleast 173 people, and
injuring atleast 308.
The terrorists have no heart, & can brutally kill anyone
at will was the clear message.
The horrific episode that shook India, have deeply saddened the
people of this country.
There was sadness, anger & frustration among the everyone,
as the people of Mumbai gathered on December 3, 2008,
for a candlelight vigil for the martyrs of 26/11 at the
Gateway of India in Mumbai.
Mumbai has been a target of the terrorists since 1993, and continues to be.
At that unprepared unfortunate hour, India saw the rise of a few heroes
who stood against the terrorists for their Nation & their people.
