My world of posts seems to have dried up over the last couple of weeks...

AND now enjoy the pics of my Nephew Rishan...he is 3 months old...

Touched

Not sure how many of you would have seen the latest IOC fire in Jaipur.

The office that I work in is 4 KM away from the site. The blast that occurred at 7 P.M shook the building, shattered all the glasses, the false ceiling came down, the doors in the basement were blown away, people who were about to get in the building fell to the ground of the 80 odd people who were there most of them got away with minor injuries but the people who were in offices which were glass covered were injured really badly..others who were closer to the blast site were not that fortunate ....

I was not there....I had called in sick....

When I got to our other office from where the rescue was getting coordinated... and which was supposed to be the gathering point...the efforts had not started as the police had cordened of the area and nothing was allowed to pass... the problem this created was most of the people were left stranded, quite a lot of bravehearts got their vechiles out and took out loads of people with them, some found the way in autos and the most unfortunate few walked 7 KM's in a state of shock...and the worst were the people who had panic attacks...the shock will not go away for some time

This is the first time I have met, spoken to individuals who are victims...and for the first time I understood the pain people had to go through
