I agree that TV news channels are discussing things, that is dangerous for the collateral of India. Twitters are true sharing plain and safe information.

I want to say here that it is the Beuracrates and Revanue department who are resposible for these henious crimes, like Excise, Custom and other tax department as these are most corrupted department at first, and on second the checking and inspection officers appointed by them.

As per law no material can touch indian land without clearance by them.
SO I WOULD SAY, FIGHT OR WAR IS NOT SOLUTION. IT IS THE HONEST IMPLEMENTATION OF LAW AND STRICT COMPLIANCE OF PUNITIVE ACTION.

OUR COUNTRY'S JUDUCIARY SYSTEM IS SECOND ONE WHICH IS REPOSIBLE FOR THESE. AS THE MAN WHO FILE ANY LEGAL SUIT IN HIS YOUNGTIEM HE WAIT TILL HIS OLD AGE BUT COURT CAN NOT GIVE HIM THE JUSTIC. AND ONE DAY HE DIES.

SO, THE JUDICIARY SYSTEM IS PROMOTION BOARD FOR CRIMINAL AND NAUNSCENSE ACTIVITIES IN PUBLIC LIFE.

IF GOVT. WANT SOME IMPROVEMENT THINK ON ABOVE AND SHOW TO PUBLIC.

I do agree, the TV channels are compromising the security operations by doing live coverage of their movements and actions, more than Twitters or bloggers. Terrorists probably do not watch TV or blogs or Twitter to plan their next action, but remember in this case they are sitting inside two luxury hotels where they might have access to TV if nothing else. The mainstream media has not been acting responsibly or sensibly.

I've been following this situation through many online outlets, and as important a tool as it is for helping the victims, it could definitely aid the terrorists. I distinctly recall one tweet that specified exactly when Indian forces were entering one of the hotels. In that specific case, twitterers on the street were giving the terrorists advance notice.

Twitter is not very popular in India except with the early adopters or geeks who number very few. So that does not make it such a big threat. Even the posts on twitter are coming from outside india from people watching TV / internet

IMO, TV news channels are discussing things, that is dangerous for the security of India. Twitters are just sharing plain and safe information as anyone can see here - http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23mumbai

"unconfirmed report" is it... this isn't any sort of officially stated position by the Indian government, RAF or NSG. They have simply asked media agencies (including Twitter, of course, as Twitter is a media agency , albeit using the long tail and crowdsourcing) to exercise discretion in reporting on strategic moves by security forces at the various tactical levels in Mumbai....
