Just spoke to Rajat Joshi. He is fine - although he was on one of the trains where the blast happened. Hope everyone is alright. My condolences to all those who lost someone dear to them.

I really HATE those guys who have done it. Any way.....
Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating volunteers were seen outside various hospital, where most of the injured were admitted. By 12 midnight, the hospital had to issue a notification that blood banks were full and they didn't require any more blood. The next day, attendance at schools and office was close to 100%, trains & buses were packed to the brim, the crowds were back.
The city has simply dusted itself off and moved one - perhaps with greater vigour.
We are Mumbaikers and we live like brothers in times like this.
Thanks for carin.

Hai Everyone,

I really appreciate the spirit of Mumbaikars.I was down to tears when i saw the scene in news channels.Hatsoff to the Mubaikars.

This ia a letter forwarded by one of the Mumbaikars.

Dear Terrorist,

Even if you are not reading this we don't care.

Time and again you tried to disturb us and disrupt our life -- killing innocent civilians by planting bombs in trains, buses and cars. You have tried hard to bring death and destruction, cause panic and fear and create communal disharmony. But every time you were unsuccessful.

Do you know how difficult life in Mumbai is? Do you know what it takes for us to earn that single rupee? If you wanted to shock us, then we are sorry to say that you failed miserably. Better look elsewhere.

We are not Hindus and Muslims or Gujaratis and Marathis or Punjabis and Bengalis. Nor do we distinguish ourselves as owners or workers, government employees or private employees.

We are Mumbaikars, or Bombay-ites, if you like. We will not allow you to disrupt our life like this.

On the last few occasions when you struck -- including the many deadly blasts in a single day killing over 250 people and injuring many more in 1993 -- we went to work the next day in full strength.

This time, we were back to normal within a few hours -- the vendors taking their next order, businessmen finalising the next deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next train. Yes, the same train you targeted.

Fathom this: Within three hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating volunteers were seen outside various hospitals where most of the injured were admitted. The next day, schools and offices functioned. The city has simply moved on, perhaps with greater vigour.

We are Mumbaikars and we live like brothers in times like this. So, do not dare to threaten us with your crackers.

The spirit of Mumbai is too strong for you to handle.

Please forward this to others. Your fellow terrorists in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iraq can also learn some important lessons from this.

Unflinchingly yours,

The people of Mumbai

Hatsoff India

Dear All,
My heartfelt condolence for all those who have lost their beloved ones.
May their soul rest in peace
Let’s pray for the speedy recovery of all the injured people.
I salute the spirit of Mumbaikers who showed resilience and patience in the hour of crisis and calamity.
************************************************** ***********
How long are we going to take this again and again and again?
Why can’t we be like US or Israel? What are we doing with all the power that we have?
Israel raided Gaza just because their one soldier was kidnapped. US destroyed the entire Afghanistan because few thousand people lost their lives in 9/11 attack.
When are we gonna do this? Why aren’t we using our power?

Dear all,



Thank you so much for your concern and really appreciate your postings/thoughts on Mumbai blasts as i checked my mails after two days and was overwhelmed to see the concern displayed by all the esteemed members of this group.

Thanks Bhawana, Preeti for your concern and Sid for calling up..



Also would really like to thank all of you for compassion and humanity. God Bless You!!



Have been in thick of action as i was on the same train which took the first blast at 6:21 p.m. at Khar and was involved in the relief & rescue operations and post trauma & first aid treatment of the injured people in the Bhabha Hospital, Bandra.



My only regret is that i couldn't save one of the fellow whom i brought to the hospital and am in the process of locating his family members to return his casio phone directory. Am attaching the article on my views which appeared in yesterday;s Times of India, Mumbai edition. Am indeed touched and humbled by the never say die spirit of Mumbaities who went out of their way to help and truly would like to say Salaam Mumbai!!..



Thanks once again and having seen the incident from such a close range, shall post my thoughts/views on this unfortunate and gruesome incident.



Best Regards,



Rajat Joshi

hello and welcome back rajat and its nice to see the spirit of mumbaikars like you and many of others who first up to turn up for the rescue of the innocent even before the police and the que for blood donation shown on the tv news was heart warming and created a sense of belonging and brotherhood in the times of adversity. the attitude to shrug off the fear and to show almost 100% attention the very next day was truly a slap on those who try and upset over country's harmony as we are too strong for them if they try, they cant break us mentally. hats off to you sir and hundreds of other bombaylites for the great spirit shown by you in the times of adversity
