For many, the last weekend brought the worst that humanity can face. The twin blasts in Hyderabad rocked the nation. But did it really? Nobody pays these blasts much attention unless this happens on their home's backyard or some of their relative is involved. Otherwise it's just another topic for their tea time 'expert' discussion, at the end of which government neglect is held responsible. But are we justified at pointing fingers at the government? How much can gov do if there's no or minimal participation from the public...? Gov is not god.

Another round of blame game is gonna start between the center and AP now, each trying to rip apart the other one. The energy they are wasting in this could've been well invested in helping the victims. But the ways in India....

This incident made me wonder - how safe are we in Bangalore? When someone can enter IISc with huge cache of ammunitions and wreck havoc, how hard is it gonna be for them to enter Forum or such highly crowded public places with deadly explosives more than enough to blow that place apart? Anybody can easily dodge the security check at the entrance of these malls. The place - bustling with youth window shopping - elders taking a stroll - kids flocking McDonald - packed to brims. One huge explosion in midst of all these and their world will come crashing down.
