Where is the fault???

The secret of all the successful Govts of this world is to adopt a proactive and intelligent approach.
I would say Indian Govt. (irrespective of the ruling party) can be considered as laggard in this regard...
This can be proved by the series of failures on 9th, 10th and 11th of july....
May be this is not a comment on a single person or a single Govt. or a single party...
I stay in mumbai and before the serial bomb blasts, the city was in a rambunctious state because of the shivsena's 'riots'....
During 9th and 10th, failures hit the Defence and Space Departments of the country......
9th - Agni test firing failed
10th - GSLV launch failed
and on 11th mumbai was shook from top to bottom by the serial blasts...
Now....the western railways in which bomb blasts occured is equipped with security cameras....
There shouldn't be any doubt in saying that this is a reactive approach....
Does these Govt. bodies need a bomb blast (and more than 64 lives) to know that there is a need for security cameras...
Shouldn't we be ashamed to say that these anti-social elements are more proactive and motivated than our Govt. bodies?
