Really Sad

.. that serial blasts in Bangalore (9 blasts) yesterday and Ahmedabad (17 blasts) today have terrorized everyone in these cities and shaken them to the core. But what is even sadder is that the only thing that the governments of Karnataka and Gujarat have done so far is point fingers at the Central Government.

Can't we expect a little more empathy than this from our country's politicians?

Edited to add (29Jul'08): And today BJP MP Sushma Swaraj gave a totally new perspective to the serial blasts. According to her, the ruling UPA government is behind the blasts just to divert the negative publicity it had received during the recent horse-trading in parliament. Just how low can she (and most of the other politicians) stoop just for the votes? Honestly, what was the lady really thinking!

This country is in a mess and we are equally responsible. Afterall these politicians are elected by us (Remember: A govt. is elected by those who doesn't vote and most of so called cool dudes and hot chicks of cities hardly vote). Politicians are good for nothing.We live in a time of 'chalta hai' attitude.

Indian politicians are like AIDS virus. They will give this country a slow and a painful death.

We need the young people to come fwd and then fight for injustice..
