Bomb blasts and aftermath:


The frequency with which bombs are going off has gone up by a factor of 100 it seems. Every other day brings news of bombs and deaths right here. It is as if we are living in a war zone. Just that we don't know who is warring with us.

I have not yet figured out what the guys who plant the bombs get out of the blasts. What is to be achieved by killing innocent people? What is to be achieved by destabilising the lives of people in any place?

I was planning to go to Guwahati on Monday. I got it cancelled. No markets open there. Curfew. What is the point. Just go to Kolkatta and do the work.

Delhi. Indore. Jaipur. Bangalore. Hyderabad. Coimbatore - long back. And now, Guwahati.

The lives of people there have changed forever. Irrevocably. Lives lost. Plans gone awry. Dreams shattered.

I often wonder why God let it go on. But God remains a witness. Has remained a witness for a long time. Even from Mahabharat times.

I also wonder why the muslim clergy men don't get their people united and come down heavily on the people who are fundamentalists? Who become terrorists?

Where have we gone wrong? where has everybody gone wrong?

What is to be done about this?
