The Day it shocked India like never before. The Day when we all had a realization that no matter which section of the community you are….YOU are vulnerable. The Day a sense of fear homed every hearth. The Day when I realized that I may not be able to see that someone special. The Day when a mother lost her only son. The Day when GM at Taj lost hid Wife and Two Young Kids. The Day When we saw the ugliest site of human mankind. The Day when we saw the bravest side of the human mankind. The Day we saw Dirty Politics. The Day we saw people helping each other. The Day when we saw the most unselfish side of a human being in line of the fire. The Day when a Local Cafe entered into History books. The Day when a landmarks of the city was hit. The Day when Smiles turned to Horror.
The Day we call as 26/11.
According to investigations the attackers traveled by sea from Karachi, Pakistan across the Arabian Sea, hijacked the Indian fishing trawler 'Kuber', killing the crew, and then entered Mumbai on a rubber dinghy. The captain of 'Kuber', Amar Singh Solanki, had earlier been imprisoned for six months in a Pakistani jail for illegally fishing in Pakistani waters.
The first events were detailed around 20:00 Indian Standard Time (IST) on 26 November, when 10 Urdu-speaking men in inflatable speedboats came ashore at two locations in Colaba. They reportedly told local Marathi-speaking fishermen to "mind their business" before they split up and headed two different ways. The fishermen's subsequent report to police received little response.
Eight of the attacks occurred in South Mumbai: at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, the Oberoi Trident, the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Leopold Cafe,Cama Hospital, the Orthodox Jewish-owned Nariman House, the Metro Cinema,and a lane behind the Times of India building and St. Xavier's College.There was also an explosion at Mazagaon, in Mumbai's port area, and in a taxi at Vile Parle. By the early morning of 28 November, all sites except for the Taj Mahal Palace had been secured by Mumbai Police and security forces. An action by India's National Security Guards (NSG) on 29 November resulted in the death of the last remaining attackers at the Taj Mahal Palace, ending all fighting in the attacks.
This is the Day when we all should realized that how vulnerable we all are, or how less time we have to say Sorry, how less time we have to say “ I Love You”, how less time we have time for small things in life.
Hence Don’t Forget This Day as THE HISTORY WON’T…..
