Dear Terrorists. You’ve lost again.
Sure, we know you did damage. Huge damage. Three ear-shattering blasts. Several deaths. Scores injured and maimed. Hundreds of heart-rending personal tragedies. Fear in the city. Anger, too. Politicians and TV anchors doing their worst to fish in troubled waters.

But Mumbai, as always, is back on its feet again. In fact, it was up even before you fled the scenes. Well before the ambulances arrived, Mumbaikars pitched in to help the dead and injured. Well before you reached your rat-hole to hide from your own wanton act of destruction, the wounded and the departed were being moved to hospital and the debris removed.
And if you don’t know you’ve lost again, you’re bigger losers than we give you credit for (if credit’s the word for this discreditable act). Even the stock market did not buy your big bang strategy.
