These blasts has made a mockery of the whole Indian internal security. It seems like anybody can put on some crackers anytime, anywhere. Lives and property are being lost and we do not take any lesson from that. In most of the cases culprits are never caught. As usual compensations were announced and people were requested to remain calm. But how long? Some people keeps on having Diwali in our country and our country cannot do anything for its citizens. After 9/11 happened, the US went after Al Queda all out in Afganistan. Since then no terrorist attack took place in US. What concrete steps our country took? Nothing! The runling is more interested in saving government than saving the people.
Minutes before the blasts an email was received by Gujarat police stating - Catch me if you can! Understandably it was an open challenge asking the police are you good enough! More blasts may be on card in other cities. As somebody said this country is run my god, likewise the people of this country has only god to pray to. These blasts or some more will happpen and will be forgotten in sometime. It will happen again in near future as law keepers and law makers will not learn anything from this.
