Mumbai Attacks

Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai ( Ek Lardki Ki Daastaan)

Khoon me dooba amn ka paikar dekha hai
Zakhmi zakhmi ek kabutar dekha hai

Jalti haveli jalta chappar dekha hai
Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai

Naam mera mazloom hai main ek ladki hoon
Jo kuch maine dekha hai woh batlaati hoon

Ghar ghar aag lagaai hai ghaddaron ne
Izzat looti dharm ke thekedaaron ne
Dharti pe shaitanon ka lashkar dekha hai
Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai

Sharm se gardan khamm karli haiwaanon ne
Aisa ghinauna khel rachaa insaanon ne
Koi darinda bhi na kare vo kaam kiya
Maa ke pet ko cheer ke bachcha maar diya
Maasoomon ko talwaron par dekha hai
Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai

Aayeenon ki taak me sab patthar dil the
Vardi me bhi masoomon ke qaatil the
Bache peer jawanon ke sar kaat diye

Insanon ke khoon se darya kaat diye
Aankhaun ne laashon ka samandar dekha hai
Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai

Jisne dekha manzar aag ugalta hua
Jisne dekha ghar vaalon ko jalta hua

Leke shole woh bhi nikal aaye na kaheen
Rukh tasveer ka ultaa hojaye na kaheen
Sheehse ki aankhon me patthar dekha hai
Haan maine gujrat ka manzar dekha hai

After reading this on net, my mind has lots of answers to what is happening in Mumbai or India on the whole.

So,What is the resolution? Will destructed/looted destory/loot the destroyers/looters?Yes this is what is happening and the chain is a vicious circle. The point is unless we as an Indian try and understand the root cause of all this the issue will never be solved.

So, instead of barking like dogs to make the laws stringent and complain about the weakness of government we must scrutinize this very fact and find an answer to this. Such stringent laws will do nothing but somehow catch another innocent and create another terrorist for another similar attack. POTA (The Prevention of Terrorism Act, 2002, a stringent law)has not been able to solve cases but instead we had an attack on our Parliament, a place that is more safe than any in India and had many similar attacks all over India.

If we complain about the government being weak, I guess it was BJP in power then. The point is stop being speculative and start being proactive to find a solution.

So what is the solution? A solution can only come if we somehow come together leaving all our ideological differences behind as partymen, as leaders, as citizens and talk progressively to solve the issue of Injustice towards a particular community whether it be in Kashmir, Assam, Goa, Orissa or in any ABC state.The parliamentarians must discuss a solution and debate over this disease that has plagued our beautiful country and our citizens.



JAI HIND!

YEH KAISA INSAAF HAI


Shuja Khan


Yeh paaani nahin jo tum bahadoge
aur saaawan use lauta dega.

Ye laal rang hai khoon insaanon ka
chaahkar bhi vaapas nahin kar paaoge.

Aye insaanyat ke darindon
khoon ka badla khoon nahin hota

Bahe khoon ko dekh khoon bahaana
apne aansuon ko poch kisi aur ko rulana

ye kaisa insaaf hai,
ye sawaab nahin ye paap hai!!!

STOP THE BLAME GAME; HELP YOURSELF OUT

Terrorists strike Mumbai; 80 dead, 900 hurt (courtesy: TOI website)
Shuja Khan

Yet another terror attack on Indians; the commercial capital of India this time is on a high alert as terrorists in large numbers have attacked at least 10 different places in Mumbai i.e Taj Hotel, Oberoi hotel,Wadi Bunder, Cama hospital, GT hospital, VT station, Bootleggers pub, Girgaum and Metro cinema. Its a pre planned large scale attack which has taken lives of as many as 80 people and has injured
more than 900 as I write this article.

The news will always come and go, such attacks and its reaction are ought to happen but the point to ponder is why? why such an attack on a country like India? A country that believes in secular philosophy?
There are some clear answers to that why- that have been given by political analysts and commentators time and again.
As an emerging econonmy in the world scenario India has developed foes that are hidden and rivals unknown. With not so bright history of India's relation with Pakistan, China or even Bangladesh, India's situation
is quite critical if wee see its geograhical placement on the world map.A time where the country requires support from its neighbours, India hopes least for this.

As speculations grow over the country or the government being soft on politics, the question raised again is whether India or Indian government can do better than this. With such series of attacks on both the state and commercial capital, India is ought to take some drastic steps on not just domestic but on an International stage.The government and the citizen of the nation have to think above the religious line and find the real culprit out. No Sadhvi's or Purohit's extremists condemnation would help us.

Much resolute measures are needed to be taken. The Indian intelligence agencies needs to wake up and nothing better than this could serve as a wake up call. Identifying the terror or the terrorists is the priority that rests with
these agencies. The media plays a very crucial role here. Speculations raised by them; most of the times mislead even the government agencies and police personnel. So, it should be strictly taken care that
no words must come out without strict facts to hold on to. Its high time the Indian media realise that TRP game shouldn't force them to sensationalize such matters of national importance and security. Its high time not to play with country's emotions with their endless drama. Its the time that we as a citizen need to wake up and identify every single terrorist on making.

I repeat that we need to think above religious lines as Blaming and Branding terrorists hasn't helped us any more. Blaming the government and intelligence agencies is as simple as eating your daily bread, so better
start taking some actions that would not only help your country but even your family and friends. India needs its people to wake up and help her.
