Do you have a personal experience to share on 26/11? Were you among those caught in the crossfire between the police and the terrorists? Were you present at the Taj or the Trident when the terrorists held patrons hostage? Come forward and share what you went through.

The information you provide will help agencies react better to such disasters. The BMC's disaster management cell has tied up with NGOs and educational institutes to launch a web survey to record and learn from the experiences of those citizens who suffered on November 26, 2008. The data collected will be analysed by experts to improve response mechanisms during such disasters, joint municipal commissioner SS Shinde said.

The Crime Branch has approached authorities in Russia, United States and Kuwait for details about those who accessed the email ID, used by perpetrators of the 26/11 attacks, from their soils. Lashkar-e-Tayiba (LeT) operatives may have accessed the account from the three countries, the Crime Branch said.

According to the Crime Branch, the ID, kharak_telco@yahoo.com, was created a few days before the attacks in the name of 'Kharak Singh' (a pseudo name of a Pakistani conspirator), who had made the payment for a VoIP (voiceover internet protocol) account of Callphonex, a company based in New Jersey, USA. The VoIP account was used by the 10 terrorists who attacked Mumbai to stay in touch with their handlers and co-conspirators in Pakistan.

Expressing concern over the plight of the tribal children living in Jhadol village, a group of 17 students from various African countries held the liquor policy of Rajasthan government responsible for the children not going to school in the tribal region.

It's being billed as the mother of all rallies and probably another bad day for city traffic. The state higher education department's anti-terror campaign rally at the Palace Grounds on Saturday will see over 1.25 lakh students from Bangalore and adjoining rural areas participating.

The city police, which had a tough time manning traffic during the JD(S) rally in November last year, is not taking any chances. The police have asked people to avoid Bellary and Nandidurga Road on Saturday. The two roads that connect the rest of the city to central Bangalore are the two main entry points for the rally venue.

DNA looks for the source of waste and ends up at Asia’s largest civil hospital

Even as experts try to trace the spread of hepatitis-B in Modasa, Ahmedabad may be sitting on a pile of discarded biomedical waste, waiting for disaster to happen.

An investigation by DNA has found that hazardous biomedical waste from Asia’s largest civil hospital, the Ahmedabad Civil Hospital, is collected by rag-pickers and others to be sold to scrap dealers. The hospital, it seems, has not put in place a waste disposal system to handle the 1,000 kg or more of biomedical waste it generates everyday.
