Mumbai, India - Gateway peace March - Dec 3rd

Mumbai was recently "ransacked" (literally!) by a few terrorists on November 26. Actually, they had planned to replicate JW Marriott of Pakistan bomb-blasts in Mumbai... even worse, they were determined to do another 9/11 in Mumbai! However India's brave commandos and men in uniform fought rigorously against these terrorists and destroyed their plans... In the process, some of these men in uniform had to sacrifice their precious life so that all Indians are safe.

To remember these "shaheeds" and to salute to their bravery and to protest against the corrupt "old" politicians of "young" India, a whole lot of Mumbai turned out today night at the Gateway of India. The call to join hands was sent through SMS & social bookmarking sites like Facebook and Orkut. People turned out like anything... The response was beyond imagination. People are extremely upset about the Indian Government's apathy towards the overall security and well being of the citizens, and the increasing corruption among all the ladders. Here are some of the pictures which depicted very clearly the sentiments of the common Indian.
