At the end of Wolfgang Petersen’s 2004 movie Troy, the narrator says, “If they ever tell my story, let them say I walked with giants. Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die. Let them say I lived in the time of Hector, tamer of horses. Let them say I lived in the time of Achilles.”Thursday, November 26, 2020, will be the 12th anniversary of 26/11 in which 157 people were killed and 300 injured by 10 terrorists from Pakistan. Only one of the Pakistani terrorists, Ajmal Amir Kasab, was captured alive and that too because of the heroism of first Mumbai’s Additional Commissioner of Police (ACP) Ashok Kamte (who fired back and wounded him in his hand even while being fatally ambushed at midnight in the Rang Bhavan Lane) and then the unparalleled bravery of Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) Tukaram Ombale (who clung on to Kasab at 12.40 at night at the Girgaum Chowpatty police barricade and refused to let him go despite being repeatedly shot in the stomach with an AK-47). Kasab was the only 26/11 terrorist to be captured alive because of the heroism of first an ACP and then an ASI..
The heroes of 26/11 died in action like Hemant Karkare, Ashok Kamte, Inspector Vijay Salaskar, ASI Ombale, Assistant Police Inspector Shashank Shinde and Constable Ambadas Ramchandra Pawar, and the NSG (National Security Guard) commandos like Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan and Havildar Gajender Singh Bisht who were flown in from Manesar in Haryana to Mumbai to neutralize the terrorists in the Taj and elsewhere.
There were those who were seriously injured like ACP Sadanand Date who took on the AK-47 firing and grenade-throwing terrorists Kasab and Abu Ismail inside the Cama Hospital. And then there were the younger officers like DCPs Vishwas Nangre Patil and Rajyavardhan who tried to ferret out the terrorists holed up inside the Heritage Taj. Not to be forgotten are the brave civilians. The Cama and Albless Hospital night-duty staff nurse Anjali Kulthe saved the lives of 20 pregnant women by slamming shut the heavy double doors of the ante-natal care ward, switching off the lights and moving everyone to the small pantry-space at the far end even while the terrorists were sprinting up the staircase after gunning down two security-guards. Despite being shot at, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus public announcer Vishnu Zende kept asking the hundreds of waiting passengers to run out of the rear and not the main exit where the two AK-47 armed terrorists were gunning down people and hurling hand-grenades at them.
