Parliament pays tribute to 26/11 martyrs | Both Houses of Parliament on Friday paid tributes to
the martyrs of 26/11 Mumbai terror attack. Recalling the attacks, Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar said the horrific memories of the tragic attack were still etched in the minds. "It was sheer grit of determined Indians that enabled the nation
to face the crisis and move ahead with resoluteness," she added. "On this day
as a befitting tribute to the brave security personnel and people who laid down
their lives, let us reiterate our resolve to unitedly fight terrorism in all its
forms," she said. In the Rajya Sabha, Chairman, Mohammed Hamid Ansari called for
rededication to protect the country's sovereignty and integrity. Condemning the
26/11 attack, Ansari said such incidents have firmed our resolve to fight terrorism.
The Upper House also observed silence as a mark of respect in the memory of those
killed in the bridge stampede accident in Phnom Penh in Cambodia on Tuesday.
