Mayhem(violence and destruction) in Mumbai

Mayhem(violence and destruction) in Mumbai

No words can ever be enough to condemn the horror of what has happened and continues to happen in Mumbai.Armed militants captured various major places of Mumbai late Wednesday, the trade centre of Indian state of Maharashtra. Over 155 people, including foreigners, were killed and hundreds wounded in Mumbai mayhem. Five key police officers were also killed in these attacks. The armed militants took several people hostage at many places including the hotels of Taj and Oberoi.This is being termed as a terrorist activity of horrendous proportions in Indian history. Business centers including Mumbai stock market and educational institutions remain closed due to violent attacks.An unknown or little known organization Deccan Mujahideen has accepted the responsibility of the attacks and it made various demands including freedom of Hyderabad Deccan etc.We would welcome your viewpoint on this grim situation in Mumbai. Will it affect Indo-Pak relations? And what we, as a nation, can do to save our motherland from the scourge of terrorism and extremism?
