Nation remembered the brave martyrs of the horrific attack on Mumbai on 26/ 11/2008. It was on this fateful day in 2008, 10 Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists from Pakistan entered Mumbai via sea and carried out coordinated attacks across multiple high-profile locations.

Among those targeted were – Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, Oberoi Trident Hotel, CST Railway Station, and Nariman House. As many as 166 people lost their lives and over 300 were injured in the biggest terror attack on Indian soil.

“We cannot forget that today is also the anniversary of the terror attack in Mumbai. Those who lost their lives, I pay my homage to them. I also want to reiterate the resolution of the country – all those terrorist organisations challenging the security of India will get befitting reply,” the Prime minister Naremdra Modi said during his address on Constitution Day at the Supreme Court.
