It goes off again
Only yesterday I was wondering if I would ever tag another post with blasts... Bham NOW. I keep screaming The Alchemist logic is sometimes working with me and this just proves it. As such, Paulo Coelho doesn't make sense to me.
So there have been 2 bomb blasts this time... One at the Lumbini park's laser show and the other at GOKUL chat! Now thats really sad because the whole of Hyderabad loves these places ( Gokul chat especially ) and now they are a black mess. It was weekend too and I don't even want to think about how many people could have been there. Though the papers say the crowd was much lesser than usual, all I have to say is good for you if you weren't there.
The last blast in mecca in may was kinda not written the way it should have been. But now the feeling of uncertainty is the only thing thats there. You do not know where it is going to happen next. But you know it is, considering a lot of bombs were defused around the city. Again all of them were in Hyderabad and none in Secunderabad. So definitely, more to come.
I know this is crazy but if it can be Gokul chat it can be just about anywhere else. The government cannot install metal detectors everywhere. Buses cannot get one in a day nor can everyone be checked at bus stops. What if there is a cunningly created traffic jam and BOOM. What if its at the Buddha statue? There is a list of what ifs but there is nothing one can do.
How can people be so cruel? How can they kill so many people? Why can't they target the people they want to teach a lesson to? Its innocent lives that they are taking.
How the hell can they be so heartless? How can religion matter so much? These people make me cry.
In between all this they show a blood stained Java text book on NDTV and I feel bad all over again. Around 50 people, who only wanted a happy weekend, are dead now. Painful. Very.
There is a bandh tomorrow. I don't know if I'll be ready to get into a bus for sometime though. I don't know if I am scared. Its funny. Wherever you walk, you are walking into trouble. But you cant stop walking. Trouble seems to be the only certainty, for the day atleast. So I guess I just have to live it.
PS : My mom said, "No more lunches for you. No more birthday parties...". I didn't care to listen. I knew I couldn't argue. :-(

Very sad indeed. This is bad enough, I can only imagine how things must be like in places like Baghdad where there are suicide bombings EVERYDAY. But terrorists will be terrorists and there's nothing you can do about it.
Its all the more shocking to observe the State Govt. not interested in coming up with strict anti-terrorist acts to curb the rising terrrorism in this beautiful city, ...
Would we learn something from the Black Saturday for Hyderabad ??
Ya its a sad incident..
