The sequence of events that has unfolded since 2100 hours on Wednesday, 26th has left the nation shocked and stunned. Conferences, Academic Events, Cricket Matches have all been canceled and there is a heightened sense of fear among people in the major cities of the country. More than 120 people have been killed and more than 350 have been wounded. Tragic stories are gradually coming out, with some people having lost their entire families in these senseless attacks. There is fear and anger in the minds of the people and 26/27th November, 2008 is being termed as India’s 9/11. The NSG, Army, Navy and Police have played an amazing role in bringing things under control in a manner similar to heroic efforts of the firefighters during September 11, 2001.
While these government agencies have done an amazing job, the country’s establishment and leadership is being seriously questioned. Was this a case of a severe Intelligence failure ? DelhiPlanet quotes a report that was published in the India Today about two and a half months back, “The Indian Mujahideen, which has claimed the responsibility for the serial terror blasts in Delhi, Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Jaipur, which killed at least 130 people in a span of four months, has now threatened to carry out attacks in India’s financial capital - Mumbai. Accusing Mumbai Police’s Anti-Terrorism Squad of harassing Muslims, the Indian Mujahideen, believed to be a front strike unit of the banned Students’ Islamic Movement of India , said in its email that it was closely watching the ATS. You should know that your acts are not at all left unnoticed; rather we are closely keeping an eye on you and just waiting for the proper time to execute your bloodshed. We are aware of your recent night raids at Ansarnagar, Mograpada in Andheri and the harassment and trouble you created there for the Muslims,” the group said in the email (Source).
The email was sent to various media houses when five synchronised explosions at popular markets and business hubs in New Delhi claimed 26 lives. Whether or not there is a group called Deccan Mujahideen or Indian Mujahideen, the fact is that if this India Today report is true than there was a serious Intelligence failure on the part of the agencies and the government was just caught napping. The voices of Educated India are slowly coming out and everyone hopes that this would be a defining moment for the country and that new and strict regulations would be put in place to prevent such acts of terror from happening again. It is astonishing to see that a group of 20-25 terrorists have been able to barge into a city as big and busy as Mumbai and bring it down on it’s knees in what was an extremely well planned attack.
Out thoughts and prayers go out to the people who have been affected in this tragic event. We do hope that the Indian Government along with assistance from other world powers would be able to deliver justice and create an initiative to weed out terrorism once and for all.
