26 th Wednesday, november 2008. The multiple terrorist attack in Mumbai at once a grievous tragedy and an attack on the spirt of India. In its method and scale, the shooting down of innicent people and courgeous police officers in 11 differenet places across the city represents an affront to the indian state of a type not seen in the recent past. Among the dead is the head of the maharashtra police anti-terrorisam squad Hemanth Karkare. The terriorist used sophictiicated arms and the mannor of attack point to a well funded, well trained group. They targetting of well know landmarks and high profile places including the Chhatrapathi sivaji terminus, the Taj mahal and Trident hotel and nariman's house etc. Mumbai Taj mahal palace and Tower hotel is a symbol of national pride for Indians, which errupted in thursday's (27/11/2008) terroist attack. 105 year old taj mahal hotel is sender of foreign occupiers and touristers. The Taj mahal has 565 rooms including 46 suits. It is decorated in Moorish oriental and florentile styles.
The entire country to stay united and calm to face the challenge. This is an hour for all sections to the society to sink their differences, so that the nation stands up as one body. A malayalie Mr. Vargheese Thomas the executive of Taj hotel also died in the terror attack at the hotel Taj on Thursday(28/11/2008) morning. The terror attacks in mumbai were well planned and executed to have the maxium impact. It was shocking to learn that a group of terroist came by boat undetected by the coast gaurd and go to the business capital of our nation that is 
constantly in the shadow of terror attacks. We have to admit that we have failed to put in place a vibrant intelligent mechanisam by which we can tackle terriorism. We should learn form Americe after september 11 2001 attacks on the world trade center US woke up to teh ground realities of terriorism and curbed it effecitvely. But in India after every terror attack the governments deploys force in large numbers, issues prohibitory orders, and closers schools and colleges for a day or two, the media do their part, publish pictures to aggravate situations, an dpoliticians condemn th attacks and government annonce exgratia. after few days the situation is back square on. We have no idea abou about the seriousness of the attack. We think all attacks were mearly communal issues. It's not only hindu muslim attack, the terrorist choose mumbai because their target was foreigners.
