Month After Bomb incident in Delhi

About more than a month ago, Delhi had been blown up with four consecutive blasts by some militants. I was expecting this incident after London blasts. The reason for that was, As Now India is showing nearness to USA and Britain, so this was about to happen. Anyway that is an debatable issue, and i am not planning to write something on that.

Instead I am going to write about change in behaviour of people after this bomb blast. I encounter with three incidents, where people reacted to unknown objects in public transport vehicle. In which one of them was initiated by me.

I usually catch DTC or Private transport buses to travel in NCR region. As blast had been happened in the DTC bus too, people are now much attentive and reactive to any thing that is susceptible.

In the First incident, i was in GL-32 Bus which runs to and from Noida to KarmPura Terminal. One person noticed the bag behind the conductor seat. Even after repeatedly asking about the owner of bag, no one was there for claiming it. So conductor decided to stop the bus and asked the driver to do so. Then one boy stood up from a seat and pick that bag. People were so annoyed with him that they scold him and warn him not to do so in future.

In the second incident, I was on the 492 Bus which runs to and from Noida to Nehru Place. I was sitting behind the conductor seat that exists besides the back door of bus. One person came into the bus and placed his bag under the conductor seat and then stood on the back door stairs. I felt like he is going to get down in one of the near by stops. So when conductor came to me asking for tickets, I explained my suspect-ion to him and asked him to perform check on that person. Conductor asked that person to pickup and open the bag. There was nothing but duty dress in the bag, But now i was feeling much more safe and comfortable.

Third incident has been happened today when i was coming to the office. This time again one traveller found a bag under conductor seat, he immediately asked about the owner of the bag. But this time owner responded immediately unlike to first incident. So nothing has been happened after that.

But encountering with all those incidents, I realize that people are now much more attentive and reactive than earlier, which is a good sign for crowded place like Delhi. I think from now, it would be much more difficult for anyone who will plan to harm Delhi like month back.
