Security in India

I missed the previous bombing by a week (a taxi blew-up at the Gate of India and destroyed the Taj lobby in 2003)...
I am glad that my company left the Taj 2 years ago for price reasons.
The Oberoi and the Taj will always be prime targets in Kolaba.
Security screening at Indian airports is useless.
But an employee managed to empty part of my shaving foam in my flight bag before the current restrictions were introduced.
I wish everybody could do back-to-back so we, crew, present less of a target...
