Mumbai Times

Fortunately nothing untoward happened during July 23-26 caused either by nature or humans.

But terror is not leaving Mumbai alone. Now again there is a threat of car bombing, particularly for high rise buildings. Again there high alert and tremendous checking and frisking of vehicles. But does it mean that earlier state of alert for specific targets is lax now? This is more worrying. Why not make the state of high alert a normal level of security to be maintained at all times? Mumbai is so attractive and many want to destroy it. A permanent terror target does require a continuous high alert.

In the meantime monsoon is on another break. But things are not looking bleak, though there is worry of drought in some parts of Maharashtra.
