26/11 Tragedy!
Public memory’s short, govt’s memory’s probably shorter. During any disaster, natural or man made, govt normally make promises to offer relief or compensation to the next of kin of the victims. Central govt made such promises to the victims’ families of 26/11 macabre incident. But unfortunately , many of the victims’ relatives are yet to receive the promised compensation. While whole nation was busy paying tribute to the 26/11 victims, Advani was locked in unseemly spat with Pranab Mukherjee over this issue in Lok Sabha. He placed the statistics regarding how many of the victims’ relatives entitled to get relief are running from pillar to post. Our heart rightly bleeds for those who died and should also feel for those who’re alive with the saddest ever memory of their dearest ones!
