Pawar said, “Like my husband, I have also been allowed to serve the country. This government belongs to the farmers, the hardworking people, the beloved sisters, and the martyred heroes who sacrificed their lives for the protection of the country. This is being proven once again by my appointment.” The 26/11 Mumbai attacks in 2008 were a series of coordinated terrorist strikes by Pakistani-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, targeting key city locations, killing over 170 people and injuring hundreds.
Terrorists had targeted civilians at the southern part of Mumbai, including Chhatrapati Shivaji Railway Station, two hospitals, and a theatre. The terrorists also held hostages at three locations- the Nariman House and the luxury hotels Oberoi Trident and Taj Mahal Palace and Tower. Terror gripped Mumbai for two days, and on November 28, Indian security forces gained control of the situation by killing nine terrorists and arresting one.
