Really good analysis I must say.very crisp. Liked it. Hope somebody how has an ounce of say in this stuff thinks on these lines.
Very True. I am glad you penned your thoughts down. I have been just expressing distress to people around, which obviously doesnt help anyone. But blogs like these, can have an impact. Getting people of similar thoughts together, and expressing them in a forum where you could be heard,..thats the need of the hour. Good job. :) Proud of u man :)
Hi Dinesh,
Nice written piece of thought. Try to publish in some leading daily for better sense to pervail on our so called political leaders. Where are the Raj's & Bal Thackerays of this world. They should have been inside one of those building to truly experience what a common man goes through every day.
God Bless our brave soldiers and their families. They are the true citizens. Their actions speak more than their words.
