No Indian can forget the way terrorists carried out the attack in Mumbai on the evening of 26 November 2008. 10 terrorists of Jaish-e-Mohammed, who came on a boat via sea from Karachi, Pakistan, shook Mumbai with bomb blasts and bullets. The bloody game of terrorists continued for the next two days. The terrorists targeted three big hotels Taj Hotel, Oberoi Trident Hotel and Nariman House and took a large number of domestic and foreign guests staying in these hotels hostage and killed many of them. Leopold Cafe in South Mumbai was also the target of a terrorist attack. These terrorists carried out the first massacre at Shivaji Railway Terminal where two attackers in the main hall fired continuously for 15 minutes with AK47 rifles, killing 52 people and injuring more than 100 people.
