The 7/7 attack on Mahabodhi Tempel Bodhgaya.


Hi, this is sameer sharma again  with lots of love.  .
There is a lot of things, that I want to share with you all about my experience 
of gaya city of Bihar . Here is the world famous world heritage site of Bodhgaya.
But on Sunday july 7, 2013 a brutal attack took place on this world heritage site
of peace. It was a pleasant morning of Sunday around 5:30 am , the swipers were cleaning the temple and all of sudden BOOM. No idea what happened , what was that.
After 2 min, one more explosion and total 9 explosions took place, one exploded at the evening. No one was killed but two monks were injured in the attack, they were admitted to medical college of Gaya city. Two bombs were defused by the bomb squat team. One was at the 80 ft statue of lord Buddha and others were inside the Mahabodhi temple’s boundary. Total of 12 bombs were planted to destroy the temple and its side by, but nothing was seriously damaged due to low intensity of the bombs. The bombs were made by 2.5 kgs LPG cylinders, by cracking its upper part and filled amonium nitrate. The bombs were tagged  with the name of the place, where it was to be planted and was written in hindi and urdu.
                            The NSG and NIA team reached the temple following day for the investigation of the explosion. Chief minister Nitish Kumar reached the site following day to know that had happened to the temple. The temple was safe but the holy tree was little damaged also the stairs were broken and footsteps was damaged.
                             Questions raised that being alerted by secret agencies why necessary steps were not taken by the state government. Before the attack I went their with my friends, what I see their, security doorframes were installed and guards with hand metal detector were recruited but they were very careless. A good example of their carelessness is, when I passed the doorframe they only asked me to switch off my cell phone and didn’t cheaked me with metal detector but when my friends passed the doorframe they were cheked one by one. I didn’t understand why they didn’t detected me.
                       The ongoing wrongs should be avoided.
