MICCI
condemns terrorism
Dear friends,
We at MICCI strongly condemn the ghastly act of terrorism
in Mumbai,
in which hundreds of innocent people lost their lives and
several
others were seriously injured.
Our heartfelt sympathies go out to the bereaved and hurt
families, who
are suffering for no fault of theirs.
Let us all join hands and do our best to stamp out this
evil curse of
terrorism which has spread its tentacles around us.
Jai Hind
Nandini Sahai
Director, MICCI |
