Is a politician’s life valued more than a civilian’s?

There was an attack on parliament a few years back and the rescue operation was that much forceful as a result there was no politician who lost their life. But in this attack the rescue process would have been made bit faster by providing more army men and sufficient weapons. It’s only after the NSG (National Security forces) and the commandos and some other security departments had arrived the real operation started. I damn sure that if there was some loss of lives in the parliament they might have thought of improving the security and it would have been a different situation now. Otherwise see it as this, if a few politicians were taken as hostage during the terror attack in Mumbai, would it the same way Govt. would have handled the situation. Would it have taken this much time to rescue. Would the same amount of army men would have been used for the rescue process?Many politicians have security guards with them all the time where as there is no security to the public. There needs a change in the whole system. It’s not the ruling party or the opposing party who are going to bring the necessary changes. Someone has to step forward; it would be fine if the one comes from the younger side. Hope the change comes sooner and let that change takes India safely to better standards
