Mumbai needs SWAT Teams.

Special Weapons and Anti-Terror Teams much like Los-Angeles SWAT teams seen on television is now need of the hour for country like India.

Swift, precise, well equipped with latest war machines is what the cities of India needs to be able to combat terror.

The police of major cities are ill-equipped to fight modern forms of terror. The police has lathis(cane stick) and a rifle which needs to be reloaded each time with fresh sets of bullets.

And all police foot soldiers are allotted fixed set of bullets (6-12 bullets) which are insufficient to kill even two fully grown terrorists.

"After they finish this quota of bullets, they need to submit an written application on A4 size paper for additional set of bullets ;)"*

Combating national borders and defending streets of the city requires different strategies, especially some premier Metro cities in the country. Many soft targets are easy picking for these terror groups.

No blame game needs to be started, which Indians love so much.

No caste based division is required. The attack is on the spirit of the city's people. So no particular caste is targeted or even spared.

"In fact, in one of the visuals on television an injured police person (Maharashtrian) was rushed to hospital by Hindu, with a Muslim as pillion rider (holding the injured police person ) a on a bike of an North Indian"*.

Now thats the spirit of Mumbai.
