Even as crematoriums overflowed with bodies and tears, Mumbai's elite was left wounded, with almost every family in the city knowing someone or the other who was affected by the attack.
Businessman Devang Shah has attended five funerals in the last two days and he is outraged at those who stood by twiddling their thumbs as south Mumbai burnt.
"Politicians have Z security even though no one wants to kill them. They have to protect citizens first, then themselves," he said.
7/11 targeted only the average Mumbaikars who took the train but 26/11 has ravaged the affluent as well wiping out entire families. It's this crushing reality that echoes in the silence around south Mumbai's elite schools.
The Cathedral School's Middle School, that is from fifth to seventh standard, remained shut on Monday. This is the section that has seen the maximum casualties with many of the children here losing both their parents. In fact, the school held a meeting on how to grapple with and how to make the innocent victims come to terms with the language of terror.
With victims at the Chattrapati Shivaji terminus and also in the lobby of the Taj Hotel the anger this time has cut across classes.
This time, it appears Mumbai wants more than resignations. It seems it wants action.
