Martyrs of 26/11 Karkare, Kamte, Salaskar

Can anything ever bring their lives back?

Uniformed men, civilians and hotel staff fight,
Against the hatred that these terrorists ignite...
NSG commandos, ATS officials and policemen,
Fight for our lives against those ''Ten''!

The three martyrs of the Mumbai terror attack, Hemant Karkare, Shashank Shinde and
Ashok Kamte, were paid sentimental homage at Allahabad by a sculptor and scores of
locals on Wednesday.

26/11 Mumbai Terror attack: Nation remembers martyrs

Lucknow: Indian police officers Ashok Kamte, Hemant Karkare and Vijay Salaskar, who
laid their lives while fighting the terrorists during 26/11 Mumbai Terror attacks last year,
are being remembered on the first anniversary of the horrendous incidents that took place
one year ago.

Their martyrdom made each eye wet. Everyone was traumatized. Each Indian mourned
the loss of three brave officers. Undoubtedly, they were great. They fought an exemplary
battle. They didn't care for their lives. They reached the spot where indiscriminate firing
was on.

They encountered the terrorists who wanted to cause major loss of human lives. These
officers interrupted them and the terrorists had to flee.
While fleeing the terrorists targeted these officers and opened fires. Even after suffering
from bullet injuries, they continued their battle against the terrorists.
They sacrificed their lives for the nation. Each Indian is proud of them. They are our
Heroes. Heroes never die. They remain in memories of every citizen. Their acts become
source of inspiration. With great honour, we salute our heroes.
