Hey guys,
This is to check with all the members of Mumbai on citehr if they are fine and doing okay. My heart and sympathies are with all those who have lost their near and dear ones in the serial blasts on trains. Just a request to all, if anyone here in this forum knows Rajat Joshi from Mumbai, please let us know if he is fine, as someone mentioned that he is injured in the blast. Sorry for the trouble as he has not replied to my mails/messages as of now. Please help!

I really HATE those guys who have done it. Anyway...
Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood-donating volunteers were seen outside various hospitals where most of the injured were admitted. By 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 offices was close to 100%, and trains and buses were packed to the brim; the crowds were back. The city has simply dusted itself off and moved on - perhaps with greater vigor. We are Mumbaikers, and we live like brothers in times like this. Thanks for caring.

Hi Everyone,
I really appreciate the spirit of Mumbaikars. I was brought to tears when I saw the scenes on news channels. Hats off to the Mumbaikars.
This is 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 have tried to disturb us and disrupt our lives -- 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 have been 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 Bombayites, if you like. We will not allow you to disrupt our lives 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 finalizing 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 vigor.
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

Dear all,
Thank you so much for your concern. I really appreciate your postings and thoughts on the Mumbai blasts. I checked my emails after two days and was overwhelmed to see the concern displayed by all the esteemed members of this group.
Thanks to Bhawana, Preeti for your concern, and Sid for calling up.
Also, I would really like to thank all of you for your compassion and humanity. God bless you!
I have been in the thick of the action as I was on the same train which was hit by the first blast at 6:21 p.m. at Khar. I was involved in the relief and rescue operations, post-trauma and first aid treatment of the injured people at Bhabha Hospital, Bandra.
My only regret is that I couldn't save one of the fellows whom I brought to the hospital. I am in the process of locating his family members to return his Casio phone directory. I am attaching the article on my views which appeared in yesterday's Times of India, Mumbai edition. I am indeed touched and humbled by the never say die spirit of Mumbaikars who went out of their way to help. I would like to say "Salaam Mumbai"!
Thanks once again. Having seen the incident from such a close range, I shall post my thoughts/views on this unfortunate and gruesome incident.

Hello and welcome back, Rajat. It's nice to see the spirit of Mumbaikars like you and many others who were the first to turn up for the rescue of the innocent, even before the police. The queue for blood donation shown on the TV news was heartwarming and created a sense of belonging and brotherhood in times of adversity. The attitude to shrug off fear and to show almost 100% attention the very next day was truly a slap on those who try to upset our country's harmony. We are too strong for them; if they try, they can't break us mentally. Hats off to you, sir, and hundreds of other Bombayites for the great spirit shown by you in times of adversity.

Hello Rajat,
Good to see you back and to know that you are alright. I know how terrible it must have been for you being on the same train and not knowing what is going to happen the very next second. It was really very gruesome and terrible of those people who had done the blasts. I do not know how they can kill so many innocent people without even thinking for a second. My heart bleeds for those who have lost their near and dear ones. My prayers to those who have passed away, may they find eternity and a place in Heaven.
Hats off to you Mumbaikars for taking this phase of sorrow very bravely.

Hi all,
Just today, after a week, I am checking the forum. Many thanks for your concern.
There was an article on page 4 in the Times of India edition on last Thursday, 13th July '06, regarding my comments on the Tuesday blasts survivors where I mentioned my experience. I tried to attach the clipping of the newspaper, but it is too big (1.2 MB) to be attached to this forum. Just that whole situation made me realize how gruesome life can be, and I tried my best by donning the role of a doctor in providing first aid to injured people. Frankly, having seen the situation from close quarters and the media reports with politicians' comments has disgusted me!
Even yesterday when I met the police, their approach made me further disgusted as they said, "Yes, we met you at the site, blah." The fact was that no one from the administration or police was there at the site, which is just 50 meters from Bandra station! Nor were there any visits in the hospital at Bhabha hospital on the 3rd floor from those high-profile people on that night.
Frankly, we lack planning and foresight in dealing with such situations! Most of the patients needed post-trauma care, which is not possible by the doctors. That's what I did. I must have attended to each patient at least 30 times and assured them that they are fine and on the road to recovery. I left the hospital when all got the discharge slip and someone was there to take them home. In fact, I remember there was one patient who told me that he had a hole in his head. When I looked at him and his wound, I told him that he is absolutely fine! He asked me if I was a doctor, and I replied yes. Then he was feeling much better. At the end, I told him the truth. He thanked me, and I said, "Wouldn't you have done the same if I was in the same compartment, which was my usual one? Just that day I took the different coach on the same ill-fated train."
I am still in the process of locating the family of the deceased and returning his Casio pocket diary, which unfortunately is not working.
Shall write more on this topic later.
Once again, thanks to all of you.

Dear all,
The spirit of Mumbai was captured beautifully by this email forwarded by a colleague, Vikram Duggal, on HR e-group.
Today's Mid-Day editorial begins by stating that you don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand that the chain of events starting from the Bhiwandi riots to the desecration of Meenatai's statue and what happened as an aftermath, to the serial blasts on the trains yesterday, means somebody somewhere wants Mumbaikars to spill out on the streets and grab each other by the throats.
Incidentally, these same somebodies--the faceless outcasts that they still are--have at least succeeded in one part of their plan. Mumbaikars have actually spilled out onto the streets.
The catch here is that they have failed to succeed in the second and most important part of their plan: that of getting Mumbaikars to grab each other by the throats. Mumbaikars spilled onto the streets--in a collective show of the middle finger to those who proposed otherwise.
I know very well that you are already aware of how Mumbai stormed onto the streets to help the injured, the stranded, and soothe the injuries that were still gaping along its lifeline.
There were capsules and capsules of streaming video that showed them offering water and refreshments to people stranded on SV Road and the Eastern and Western Express Highways.
There were captures of students of Sydenham and SNDT College, who camped at Churchgate station with the sole purpose of offering a bed to those stranded at the starting node of the lifeline.
And there was also that memorable sight of people standing patiently in front of KEM Hospital--all in a serpentine queue, to donate blood. As a result, there has been no shortage of blood at all the hospitals where the injured are being treated or are recuperating.
But this is not about all that. And yet, it is about all that and more. It is about the sights I saw and the people I met while traveling along the Western Express Highway to Kandivali yesterday, between 7 in the evening and 1 in the morning.
It is about that little kid and his grandfather near Dadar, who, perhaps in the absence of anybody else in the household, took to the streets with bottles of water and packets of biscuits to contribute in whatever way possible in managing the crisis. "Uncle, you must be thirsty," the kid told me while offering the bottle. A parched me drank gratefully. And I saw in those eyes no fear. So what did those terrorists think while planting the bomb? That was at least the silent way of making one statement--"Terror, my foot.!"
It is also about those housewives in front of a housing society near Santa Cruz, who were standing with pots of piping tea, water, and God only knows what else to help those passing by. And they had this board beside them which read "Beyond Borivli, Can Stay." I was lucky to get a cab, but there were people who were trying to make it on foot. And they needed succor. Rest. Shelter. It was raining.
It is about the autorickshaw driver, who finally reached me home in the interiors of Kandivali at 1 in the morning. And refused to take the night fare, despite being legally empowered to charge extra. "Nehi saab, aaj ki baat alag hai. Aap thik thak ghar pohuj gaye, yeh hi kafi hai," he bade me goodbye at my doorstep.
It is also about the dabbawala who provides me with my dinner every day. His shop is near the Borivli station, where there was one of the biggest blasts at 6:34 in the evening. Yet, at one o'clock in the morning, the dabba was there waiting at my doorstep to be picked up. It didn't need a note. The piping hot food at such an unearthly hour said it all.
The terrorists succeeded in synchronizing a series of blasts that stopped the Mumbai lifeline for somewhere around seven hours. That was all that they achieved on 7/11. The trains were back on track by 1:30 in the morning and they plied all through the night. I wonder if the masterminds will consider this before planning their next attack. I would urge them to--if this reaches any one of them--to rethink. After all, what did a year of planning, six months of smuggling dangerous explosives, extensive networking, and crores achieve at the end--around 200 lives and just seven hours of disruption? Bus! I won't budge for that. In the deal, they united more than they dreamt to rip apart.
And by the way, I did not spot any member of the celebrated Readers' Digest survey team yesterday on the roads. Or perhaps they were there--reconsidering their statement.
I request whoever receives this to forward it to as many people as possible. At least that way, we will build an opinion against these faceless faces of terror.
