This is India’s 9/11. At least for now. The Suburban train attacks of last year were the 9/11 of last year, and Parliament attacks were the 9/11 of their time. In fact, going all the way back to 1993, the blasts that killed more people and damaged more property were, in a Back-to-the-future kind of temporally warped way, the 9/11 of 1993.
I’ve always felt that comparing Mumbai’s terror attacks to 9/11 was lame and wannabe. Find myself amused by the way Krish Ashok puts it.
