I'm so sorry to hear that mate, but dont worry he'll pull through, just be strong and think positive, he'll definitely live.

Damn, my sympathies, Pentakon. Talk to people here if it helps.

I'm concerned about some members yes; I wanted to note I'm pretty sure I saw Aadil browsing the forums yesterday my time btw (checking: Yes, he's posted too, must have been Thursday night in India), so I'm assuming he's alright.

Once again Times Now images of Taj Lobby showing a lot of movement though the reporter says she is too far away to make out what is happening.

pentakon · Nov 29th, 2008, 02:20

thx mates.He was in the train station. its hard because of the info is slow to receive what situation is going on.but yeah everything hopefully goes good.

mridula · Nov 29th, 2008, 02:22

Train station was almost more than 48 hours ago, so your cousin has survived for quite sometime. That is encouraging. Is he or his friends in touch?

mridula · Nov 29th, 2008, 02:27

Times Now reporter is now speculating if the lull is because NSG fears structural to the Taj building that is what is holding them back.

I'm sure it would be yes, must be agonizing to wait for news.

I'm assuming you've been to India? Don't forget staying in touch with the home front can be hard at the best of times. (Well, it can be on most travel and depending on your travel mode, but certainly there.) That's tough now, but it is what it is. Like the others said, let's assume he is in good hands at least.

Anyway, do hang around here for comfort.

Still a lull at Taj as reported on TV Channels and sporadic firing.

mridula · Nov 29th, 2008, 02:58

Most of the channels are now showing a still from Taj and recapping the previous incidents, I think I will call it a day.
