"उस भीड़ में कोई किसी के लिए फल बेच रहा होता है, कोई चाट बेच रहा होता है, कोई कुछ और जन सेवा कर रहा होता है. कोई परिवार के साथ वहां आया होता है. सब बेचारे जिंदगी को आगे बढ़ाने के लिए संघर्ष कर रहे होते हैं.?

Very thoughtful points indeed!
To begin with, let's characterize the attacks. Based on who is targeted and the kind of damage caused, there are three kinds of terrorists attacks that have happened. One the kind that happened on 26/11 and parliament and the second kind that targeted religious places and the third kind that happened recently and many times before, the serial Mumbai train blasts, BMC bus blasts, Sarojini Nagar market blasts etc. This distinction can also be seen from the kind of reactions. For the first ones, the state was at the verge of bombing the establishments on foreign land, while for the other, the media gets crazy and the politicians for a bee line in front of cameras.
While the first and second ones could be understood easily - they are direct attack.
I wonder on the core objectives of the third kind.
Are these (the third kind) attacks also of religious nature? Did the terrorists made sure that there are no Hindus, Muslims or Christians who would get killed before triggering the bombs?
Are these an indirect attack to disturb/destabilize the establishment? Weren't the parliament attack and the 26/11 attacks taken more seriously, even invoking direct action by US? Would killing, common, poor people (rich do not visit these bombed places) really destabilize anything other then the psyche of common, poor people?
Who would gain from this destabilization of common, poor people's psyche, the rich?, the political leaders?, the mafia?, the religious leaders?, nations like Pakistan/Afghanistan etc?, who?? What benefit would they get?
Who would gain from inducing fear in common people? Who wants the common people to remain fearful?
