Ace investor Ajay Bagga, on Sunday, recounted the horrors of 26/11 attacks 15 years ago when Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists from Pakistan opened an indiscriminate fire that killed 166 people and injured several others during a 60-hour siege in Mumbai.
Sharing a photo of him and his wife running out of the Taj Hotel the next morning after the attacks, he wrote on the social media platform X that five times they came face to face with death that night.
"Photo of my wife @RajitaBagga
and I , as we were running out of the @TajMahalMumbai
the next morning, after being at the Chambers for the past 12 hours .
Firing started again as we ran out.
5 times we came face to face with death that night," he wrote.
He recalled that they were having dinner at Masala Kraft restaurant at the Taj Mumbai when the firing started at 9.30 pm.
"Got out the next morning around 10.30 am after the NSG reached the Taj and created a corridor for us to leave," he wrote, thanking Indian Army, NSG, Mumbai Police and the staff of Taj Mumbai.
Bagga's wife Rajita Bagga too took to X to say she spends every moment in gratitude for the "gift of life."
15 years to 26/11. Still spend every moment in gratitude for the gift of life. An excerpt from my bestseller “The Unknown Edge” where I have recounted what @Ajay_Bagga & I went through & the miraculous way in which we were saved after over 12 hours in @TajMahalMumbai !
