I'm thousands of miles away from yesterday's attacks, lost for words and disturbed. Rains, bombs, and now all this. Mom is in India, and thankfully nowhere near Mumbai. Hearing first hand accounts give me the chills. A cousin chose not to go Oberoi last night as she was too tired to get ready, didn't go to Taj for the very same reason even though she had discount coupons and ended up going somewhere else. Almost all my relatives are scattered around South Mumbai. And thankfully everyone is safe. Was up all night stalking IBN / BBC live streams and twitter search. It was heart wrenching to watch the Taj burning away all night long, hearing shots and blasts with reports of brave cops and people dying every hour. Questions and more questions keep haunting, like toxins with no answerable cure. I'm very peeved off with the BBC right now and I'm not alone, and don't even get me started on Barkha Dutt and Adwani. More views from Pakistan here. There's so much on my mind right now, I don't think I can continue. Stay alert, stay safe.

More over here.

Update: More live twitter coverage all on one page here.

  2. Very horrid and horrible. It's over, but far from over.
