Although most of my family is in south India, and in Calcutta, we do have some relatives in Mumbai. We're trying to contact everyone in India and make sure people are safe.
I just want to say to the rest of the Indians on the forum: Hope you and your families are safe. This is such a horrible thing to happen (though it is now becoming too uncommon in India).
I hope the Indian army does something about this and takes up action against the fucking group that's behind all these bombings. Of course for the sake of being politically correct and not seeming like we're invading another country the government and politicians will never go for it. This is just too frustrating, and I'm sure the people of Mumbai are even more frustrated. As my mom says, they're the New York equivalent as they are very resilient people. Bombing on Monday, back to work on Tuesday. I think this is however the last straw, and I hope there is a rising motivation to take action rather than withhold all the pain and anguish.
Anyways, I should stop ranting as that belongs in the political discussion thread. I mainly wanted to wish all the Indians here. If I want, I'll go off on my rant on some other thread.
Hope everyone's safe. Take care.
