A Salute to Mumbaikars ...

Mumbaikars are the best examples of Samaritans in our society. After the recent 7-in-a-row bomb blasts, that rocked Mumbai's lifeline - local trains (that carry some 5 million people daily), the rescue operations were launched by Mumbaikars only !!!

The first rescue operations came from train passengers and people in the vicinity of railway stations who complained that there was no trace of policemen in the initial half hour.

The taxi drivers also did their bit, by asking their passengers to get off so that they could ferry the injured to the nearest hospitals.

Would it have been possible in any other city in India? I'm afraid the answer is NO.

I do appreciate those who help others. But can you tell me in which city people will run away and not help the victims?
