The aftermath of any terror attack, in
The Mumbai carnage shocked me, partly because this was no hit and run attack or a fidayeen human bomb attack. It was, in fact, a war brought into one of the most populated cosmopolitan cities of the world. It was beyond my imagination on how a handful of people can take a city siege and bring a country to stand still. The siege went on for two days, and after 190 deaths and injuries to many more, the situation was taken under ‘control’ and life resumed its normality from Monday.
I was watching one of the news channels on the ensuing days, and after many interviews with the celebrities and after many debates later, the media thought fit to go to the people who suffer the most, the ‘aam janta’ (common public).

Dear,
I am impressed with your language. but things I want to add, or I want to add a dimension is the role of media, I can to know that due to this media the guys killing people "TERRERIST" were knowing movemnet of our soilders every now and then and were able to pin-pointedly kill at will.
