Sunday marks the 15th anniversary of 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks. At least 160 people were killed and over 300 injured. Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis also paid tributes to the slain of 26/11 attack at the police headquarters.

Following the attack fifteen years ago, Mumbai Police have been able to strengthen security measures within the city. They have identified more than a dozen landing sites that could be vulnerable and are patrolled around the clock. They have also deployed new quick response police teams and added drones to help with coastal security.

Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists had entered Mumbai on the night of November 26, 2008, killing 166 people, including foreign nationals and injuring several others during the course of four days.

Pakistani terrorists chose their targets very meticulously to cause maximum damage - the Taj and Oberoi Hotels, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus, the Jewish centre at Nariman House, and the Leopold Cafe - as these places were frequented by Europeans, Indians and Jews. Armed with automatic weapons and hand grenades, the terrorists targeted civilians at numerous sites in the southern part of Mumbai, including the popular Leopold Cafe, two hospitals, and a theatre.

Nine out of the 10 LeT terrorists were eliminated while Mohammad Ajmal Amir Qasab was held alive at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus railway station by Mumbai Police. Tukaram Omble caught Kasab alive before being shot dead by the terrorist. He was awarded Ashok Chakra posthumously for his act of bravery.
