Blood, gore, pain, tears, fear, terrorism, deaths - all this and more surrounds Mumbai as the rescue operations go on. And we witness all this with a little bit of sympathy. An occasional glimpse of someone crying moves us. But that is it. The news remains a hot topic of train and office discussions. But the concluding line is always the same - this is not new to Mumbai.
With this will start a session of allegations and counter allegations. Will we manage to solve this issue - we don't know. Will we ever be able to become a peaceful country - we don't know. Will this ever stop - we don't know. Will we remain sensitive to all this - dangerously we don't know.
Perhaps, this is what our governance has made us - insensitive.
In the midst of this a song plays in the back of one's mind - Jahaan gam bhi naa ho, aasoon bhi naa ho, bas pyaar hi pyaar pale, ek aise gagan ke tale. Will we manage to create such a world - we don't know.
