Cover Story: India Today Hindi’s cover story Saavdhan! Neeche Aag Hai is about the latest Mumbai riot. Mohammed Amarul Islam Shaikh, 45, lives in a 200-sq-ft room, and runs a small restaurant in Garib Nagar, Bandra East. He is a Bengali Muslim, from Murshidabad in West Bengal. In December 1992, his mother-in-law Zeenatun Nissa, a Congress party member, was shot and wounded by the Mumbai Police while protesting against the Babri Masjid demolition. His eldest son Umar, 24, was a hawker, passionate about body-building and Salman Khan movies. On August 11, Umar was shot dead by the police outside the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (cst), Mumbai’s largest railway station, during mob violence to express anger at the death of Muslims in the Assam riots. This became the epicentre of a nationwide panic about Muslim reprisals. Two decades after 1992, Mumbai is on the brink again. The fear is latent but palpable. The city has been tested: Bomb blasts in buses and trains, culminating in the epic Pakistan-planned assault on Mumbai on November 26, 2008. Mumbai has maintained peace with impressive tenacity and commitment. But a series of violent incidents in Assam have put the city on edge.
