. Having a Jawan's display picture and yet feeling for terrorists. Sitting in Mumbai you don't know a tenth of what people face in east. Your one 26/11 brought down your city in 1 day; now imagine living through this terror everyday. This is what the life is for villagers, commoners and simple Indian citizens in Maoist areas.
