" Red Alert "


" I have a dream...."

- Martin Luther King,Jr

My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing.
Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride,
From every mountain side, let freedom ring!

So ,said the great visionary.


"Red Alert" sounded across the nation

Prime targets - City malls, high profile temples, public transportation...

Can you imagine if people gave in to this paranoia of terror and decided not to visit any of these “hot-spots” which the U.S Intelligence has declared as potential targets. Will people actually be able to protect themselves????

Traveling in my usual 8:56 local , I saw a policeman standing at the station, trying to look into the eyes of every passenger. Can he really protect us???

I cancelled my visit to Siddhivinayak… will that keep me safe???

Nation on “Red Alert” from 12th August to the 16th of August…. Does this mean that we are safe from the 17th August onwards…

Amidst all the “Red Alert , this week we celebrate our Independence…. Are we really celebrating ?????


But I refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt.

Today, I have a dream...a day without fear, from all means that cause the terror.
