Peace Prevails

Back in late September, I had written this post on the taxing times ahead for the security forces with the Mumbai visarjan, CWG and the Ayodhya verdict coming up in quick succession, providing our misguided friends from across the borders (and many from within!) the perfect platform for a grand attack aimed at destabilization and chaos. Frankly, even the die-hard optimist in me was apprehensive of trouble, and the hope was that it would be contained locally, and damage limited.

I do not think anyone truly believed it would all pass by so peacefully, with not a single incident reported from any where - in either of the three events.

A truly remarkable feat by our security forces, something that deserves a huge round of applause and gratitude.
