Friends, Indians, Countrymen! its just our battle

    Mumbai and the whole country has again seen the shameless blood bath after recent bomb blasts which again only killed the innocent people. It is reported that when the Chief Minister of Maharashtra visited the hospital to see the injured s, the angry mob protested by giving slogans against him and the government. Seems like people have lost the patience and faith in the government and why shouldn't they? Is this that our Government even can not offer the safety of our life, is that something we do not have a right to live without fear, to go out without worrying,  in our own country.

I had a just 3 more weekends in my hand before returning to India and I wanted to make full use of the weather to visit the various places. But sad part was that, there is no such thing called public transport over here. There were just the cars, cars and cars and if you don't have one, then god may help you. The same case was with me, I was new in the country and off course I did not have the car (I don't have the car and I am still in the US). But then Mr.Yash Jog, my senior colleague helped me a lot. He used to ask me where I want to go this weekend and then with a little bit hesitation I used to tell him my wish. So last time I told him that I want to go to Hollywood boulevard, which is the main attraction not just in California but in all US and the world, so the plan was quickly finalized,
