terror in the country

so much has happened in the past 1 and a 1/2 weeks....
first up, my medicine theory internals went alright i think.

its the 2 days before that internals that caught the attention of the whole nation and even the events that keep getting reported in newspapers even now that are gripping the country by fear!
i had never imagined that bombs would go off in our beloved bangalore, the always-safe place to be in the country.... i have spent most of my life till now in this calm, peaceful city. it took some time to actually believe that blasts did occur. i had received an sms saying that 4 blasts occurred in the city, stay where you are,dont visit crowded places,etc from a friend and also that this was not a joke.
after i read that, i thought it was a joke and as i was at home then ,switched on the tv. lo, behold all the news channels reporting blasts going off one after another till the count reached 9,in one channel, most others reported 8 blasts.
by the time i had come to terms with this news, seventeen bombs went off in ahmedabad. and there were lots more casualties this time around, homage to all those people who lost their lives to this mindless act.

even today, i read in the newspapers about lots of hoax calls in bangalore about bombs, 18 bombs defused in surat!!! just imagine, if they had not been!!!

what is happening to this country, who are the perpetrators behind all this???

we must be thankful to the vigilant bomb squads, the number of bombs defused have been almost equal to the number that have gone off!
