Mumbai was under attack on 26/11. It brought out the heroic best in our commandos, policemen, media and the common man and the worst in politicians who uttered unforgiveable statements like 'Events like these are everyday common incidents' and 'Even a dog wouldn't visit his house' for Major UnniKrishnan's father. The nation was outraged and the effect was felt in the political world where a CM lost his seat and another had to apologise.Such is the power and effect of language.You can use it as an instrument of love and peace or one of hatred and violence.The choice is yours ! So,
MIND YOUR LANGUAGE !!
