Since last night, there are reports on terror attacks in various parts of Mumbai. Many of us have been glued to the TV. There seems to be no end in sight at the moment.We hope our friends who reside there as well as those who are on visit are safe. What pains us more is that the TV visuals show cops carrying vintage weapons. These are no match to the newer sophiscated ones being used by the terrorists. Its something like comparing an old ordinary hand held refractor scope with a GOTO.

We deplore the un-necessary loss of life caused to innocent Indian citizens at Mumbai byterrorists, and express our condolences to the families of those bereaved.Manoj
