It's a safe country

I am sitting in the newsroom on Saturday evening, and news of six bomb blasts in Ahmedabad just appeared on television. As I turned around to watch news of the attacks -- which came just one day after seven blasts in Bangalore -- I apparently looked concerned enough to prompt one of the deputy metro editors to volunteer some reassuring words.

"Don't worry, it's a safe country," he said, laughing. "We always have at least six blasts."
