That day of the year.

Another 26/11 has dawned. Kasab is still alive and the 26/11 probe will go on till Sun Tv broadcasts the 1 millionth episode of some serial. Kanimozhi will even get bail, but Kasab will not be hanged, nor will India's elite anti-terror units get what weapons they request for. And we will remember the martyrs who saved our haves staying in the Taj and the Oberoi, and the cops at CST who tried to save our have-nots and Tukaram Omble, who was killed trying to apprehend Kasab.

Mumbai will forever be in fear and Indian media will forever telecast the happenings of 26th November 2008. Petrol prices swell and so do our netas pockets, with no relief to the common man's burden. While prices of essential items in TN have been increased to an extent that Mr. Montek Singh Ahluwalia's Rs. 32/ day norm looks like a figure that he might have reached if he was planning for India during Shahenshah Akbar's time.

Kolaveri takes the nation by storm but the kolaveri that we actually need here is something that Sharad Pawar was given a taste of. When one politician gets just slapped there is a huge furore and such unity displayed, which sadly is missing when all our money goes waste in the form of parliament sessions - which never take place. Thousands of Indians are starving across the country, while all our MLAs and MPs eat 4 sumptuous meals a day.

When the voting public who voted people to power struggle to get into a bus and reach their shifts on time, our CMs and PM happily stop the traffic to reach their bathrooms to have a nice comfortable shit.


Yet another 26/11 dawns and the aam aadmi is still not sure of whether he will return home to die another day, while no good politicians who have done almost everything to ensure that they live happily till they die are given Z category security - and just because of one slap/slipper. An entire nation clamours for that kind of security from terrorism, corruption, weekly price rises and whatnots that have been imposed on the people. When will we get it?

Another 26/11 will dawn next year and who knows what we might be seeing then?
