Sir, The surprise is of Bombay Catholic Sabha President, giving interviews in Times of India of 9th December, 2008, putting pressure on government not to take action against terrorists. This is sending a wrong message to all youth, including, christian youth.
Is not the President of Bombay Catholic Sabha aware, that young innocent Christians were begging of the terrorists on 26/11, at Taj and Oberoi, to spare their lives, but terrorists showed no mercy and shot them dead. The President of Bombay Catholic Sabha and Priest have neither visited the homes, nor offered condolence, sympathy,money to injured or dead christians in the attack by terrorists on 26/11 in Mumbai, it is probably because they are not from rich, well-known, christian families. Although the President and his family members and all members of the Bombay catholic Sabha and their families did not suffer at the hands of terrorists on 26/11, it is shocking to know that neither President of Bombay Catholic Sabha, nor any of the Chairmen of Bombay catholic Sabha Church units or any Priest, has bothered to offer Mass, in any Church in Mumbai, for the dead christians in the 26/11 attacks. My urgently request is for Bombay catholic Sabha and each one of their members to please let the government do the job of catching the terrorists, otherwise Bombay catholic sabha is giving wrong message to terrorists. Please immediately Bombay catholic sabha should offer Mass for the dead and injured christians, as well as financial help to all christian families who lost their children, and family members in the recent 26/11 attacks, instead of "hand-holding on the roads of Mumbai".
