Last week, When I heard about the blast in Assam India, I said Ohh and that’s it, then I turned unusually silent and waited for anger to hit me, but nothing like that happened. I really feel bad for the kind of reaction I produced after hearing such a tragic news, but I really wasn’t surprised neither was I shocked. And yeah it did not sound much like a news to me. I have heard or read this kind of news about India at least two two dozen times in last two years, apart from those minor blasts that take every third day in some remote corner of India killing one or two at least along with them.
I tried to recall these terror events of recent times, Here are they,
This year alone, nine major blasts occurred and honestly I didn’t have their records and neither did I remember them when i searched through various news papers.
Jaipur blasts– On May 13, 2008 Serial blasts at Pink city claims to have killed at least 70.
Ahmadabad blasts- -on July 16 2008, 57 dead in serial blasts in Ahmadabad.
Bangalore blasts- -on July 25, 2008, 4 people die in Bangalore.
New Delhi blasts –on September 13, 2008, Blasts at New Delhi killed 26.
Delhi blasts– on September 27, 2008,terror strikes Delhi again in which 3 people were killed.
Gujarat blasts– on September 29, 2008 One killed in this blast.
Malegaon blasts(Nasik)on- September 29, 2008 Five persons were killed. (Bomb was placed on unattended motor bike)
Imphal blasts –on October 21, 2008, : 17 killed in blast near Manipur police commando complex.
Assam blasts –on -October 30, 2008, Assam blasts: Eleven blasts killed over 40 people.
Apart from this, from what I could recall, last year that is in 2007, There was huge blast on Samhjhauta express, and there were twin blasts in Hyderabad and there was a blast in Ajmer city too.
I couldn’t sum up the blasts that occurred previous year That is in 2006. As though there is no value for people got killed and everyone around, the people who could really can act on this, are pretending as though it can never happen to them.
Life goes on, people move on, as though it was a minor accident or may be even worse, as though nothing has happened.
Hmm I know every place has got bad fruit, I see basket full here. I mean to say, there no doubt that these activities are being triggered by radicals across the border, however it wouldn’t have been possible had it been with out out the support of domestic terrorists.
