Meanwhile, in Delhi, an Emergency Management Group(EMG) was set up..

The group was chaired by the cabinet secretary, Mr.Prabhakar...

The other members included head of the Research and the Analysis wing, chief of the National security wing,
Deputy Prime Minister & Home Minister, Foreign minister and the civil aviation minister..

The meeting was organised by National Security Advisor Mr. Jishra, who was also Prime Minister's chief security advisor..

Defence Minister Mr.Shankar was a prominent part of the group and was largely accused during the decision making process..

The government was intimated of the hijack at 4.40 pm..

The EMG learnt about it at 5.30 pm and decided to meet at 6.00 pm..

Until then, they had no clue about where the plane was..

Mr.Shankar, after checking the GPS of the aircraft, suggested for a counter- operation..

He knew that the plane was not inside the Indian boundaries..

Yet, he couldn't exactly decipher where it was..

The hijackers must be from the technical side, he guessed..

Several hackers tried to decode the GPS but,they couldn't..

Mr.S knew neither about the hijackers nor their demands..

He didn't knew the whereabouts of the plane or the army men..

He opted to go for a counter operation..

The EMG strongly opposed it..

They didn't want to worsen the situation..

No matter how much they were secured and had tightened the grip, the news started spreading to the media..

The army house was surrounded by the press..

The officials were under pressure..

The defence minister addressed the media..

He generally told them the issue..

He intimated them that there was no information from the side of hijackers..

As usual, the press started triggering him with absurd questions which he ignored with a smile..

He had no options though..

He cut off the press meet in a jiffy and went back to look after a solution..

After an argument for 2 more hours, they couldn't come to one conclusion..

To their good luck, the first phone call, the hijacker called them..

Mr.S spoke with him..

S-Hello.. Mister, See, I don't know who you are..

I don't know where you are..

But, why did u do this?

What is your demand?

And, how do we believe that our men are with you?

Hij- Stop idiot.. After all your men are with me..

Can u please shut the fuck up and give the phone to your PM?

Iam not ready to talk to you..

I'll call you after 1 hour..

Ask your PM to talk with me..

Until then, don't try to do anything smart..

I know you are trying to trace this call..

Before you try to do anything smart, look at that video I have sent you..

Shankar was stupefied..

Video, which video man?

Hello..

Hij-Shut up and ask the security to check the entrance..

You have a CD..

Go check and don't waste my time now..

Remember..

I ll call u after one hour..

I don't want to hear your voice anymore..

He disconnected the call abruptly..

Shankar stomped his leg on the floor with high level of anger..

The security brought the CD..

The EMG knew well that it had no good news..

Yet, they had to see the extent..

The CD started playing and the first 50 seconds were nothing but black space with some white sparks..

Those 50 seconds..

The hearts skipped their beats and they started palpitating..

And the CD showed the video of a camouflage man whose body was completely drenched in the pool of blood..

He

Was

Dead..

The pain could be seen in the face..

And, his legs were destroyed with sharp weapons brutally..

His stomach was ripped off badly..

His eyes were pierced and only the hallow space could be seen..

The heart was thrown away from his body and it was placed near his body..

The place was filled with flesh..

The nerves and bones were so visible in the closeup shots..

His hands were holding the Indian flag that was embossed in his camouflage shirt..

The brutal martyr it was..

The camera rolled towards the east to show the rest of the army men..

They were all unconscious..

Completely..

They video cut off in the middle and a voice over spoke through the dark screen..

Hope you people understood that your men are with us by now..

See you in one hour..

The video went off..

'Bastard'- The word came out of Shankar's mouth involuntarily..

His body got petrified..

The arrangements were made for the talk between the PM and the hijackers..

The news again went to the media..

Shankar was at high pressure...

Tha nation started blaming him..

Yet, he could do nothing..

He as usual ignored the 100000  irrelevant questions..

The negotiation between the PM and the hijacker started..

The demands were heavy..

The demanded the release of three important criminals...

And an amount of 50 lakh crores..

And the blue print of the arms room..

The time of 12 hours was given to them to fulfill the demands...

Time passed away slowly..

The PM couldn't take a proper decision..

How could they give the details of the arms to some other nation?

They were discussing and arguing...

Shankar again suggested for a counter attack..

He stood for it..

They didn't budge..

The pressure got increased from all the sides..

The whole nation was looking at the Ministry of Defence whereas the Defence minister's idea was being completely ignored by the EMG..

Poor chap, what could he do?

The second call..

PM and the President tried for negotiation..

After a detailed argument, the amount
got reduced to 45 lakh crores, which was still out of the limits..

The whole nation went bonkers..

They again had an negotiation, but it was too late..

The 2nd man was killed...

The CD arrived at the entrance..

Shankar lost his patience..

Sir, kindly let me to do an counter operation..

This won't work out..

The demands aren't possible for us to fulfill..

We can't release the prisoners..

We don't have the amount also..

And most importantly, we can't give them the details of the arms room..

Anyways, they are going to kill the men..

What if the operation tastes victory, and what if we can save atleast one?

Please sir..

He begged..

The panel again went for an argument..

By then, two more hours passed away..

2 more CDs..

It was Kathir's turn..

The bullet from the hijacker's riffle plunged into his body..

He thought of his family..

L amma..

Moorthy...

Dhanam..

Bala..

Jeeva..

Meena..

Kanna..

And MULLAI..

And his Nation..

The moment the bullet went in, tears started rolling down his cheeks and the blood oozed out of his body..

He lost his consciousness completely and went to the next world..

The soul moved out of his body..

Tbc..
