SP Guide Publications Pvt Ltd launches this special effort to draw the spotlight firmly on the serious lapses in our country’s security apparatus—a framework so weak as to be penetrated by a handful of terrorists who unleashed mayhem in Mumbai on November 26, terrorizing the city and holding the entire country to ransom for the next several days.

Even as the echoes of the militants’ dastardly act are buried in the cacophony of life returning to normal, our sincere effort would be to keep those horrifying hours alive in the minds and memory of every citizen and administrator of this land. Our effort will be to ensure that while resilience wins the day, resignation and laxity do not seep back into our collective conscience. Our effort will be to keep the administration alive to the task of re-evaluation, re-enactment, re-design and rejuvenation of the crumbling edifice of homeland security.

Our effort will be to make sure promises made in the wake of the terrifying terror attack on Mumbai are translated into concrete action on ground, resolutions made are fulfilled and the emerging trend of transparency and accountability sustained against all odds.
