I was astonished when I found out that there were 34 blasts in India since May 2008 (including the Delhi blasts on Saturday, September 27), which killed at least 150 people (official figure) and left hundreds injured. Imagine THIRTY FOUR bomb blasts.
And look at America... can you remember any terrorist attack after 9/11 in 2001? There haven't been any infact. This goes on to show how efficiently they have not negotiated with security of their people. It is the will of their government to mainatin high security measures throughout. But sadly, it is not the case here.
I was surprised when home minister Shivraj Patil said this after Delhi serial blasts, "We knew that blasts will happen. We had prior information."
So, what were you'll waiting for... the bombs to ripe! This is such an irresponsible state of act by our government. By this it is clear that we can't rely on them to help us out if there's another terrorist attack.
India is clearly becoming as vulnerable as Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan where a bomb blast is a natural phenomenon.
It's time we take care of our selves. Be alert.

Excellent blog and thought too. Security has become a play game, where the government praises the invisible "spirit" of a city, and so on and so forth, which would, in turn, cover their faults.
Bomb blasts are not an unknown territory to us now. Its all very well known, the pain, the agony and suffering. But the feeling never comes. From the other end, that is!
Hey Sneha, thanks for ur views.
