Indian intelligentsia supports a blatant lie. Shameful!
This refers to the role of Indian intelligentsia viz –a-viz Shopian double rape and murder. We are shocked to some apparently well meaning people like Prem Shankar Jha supporting the CBI lie so shamelessly. I first thought him to be one of the saner voices in India but his atrocious role in twisting More

Educational policy
The class 10th result announced by the J&K State Board of School Education recently has come both as a surprise and shock. While the overall pass percentage was high as compared to previous years, yet many government schools, as usual, showed a very dismal performance. Even in the Srinagar city, More

Covering failure
This refers to the news about “IBM-DAKSH” recruitments. The government has failed to recruit people in different departments and create job opportunities. Now to cover its failure, it is asking Kashmiri youth to work in Delhi at call centres. I think the educated youth can do it without government interference More

Laughing stuff
This refers to the news report in Greater Kashmir wherein State Congress President, Prof  Soz has given “full authority” to the Indian army on the revocation of the Armed Forces (Special) Powers Act.. One can only laugh out at such a person who gives such 'wise' statements. One can only suggest More

Quality education
 This refers to article by Dr. Farooq Ahmed Peer about Quality Education. We must remember that quality education comes from quality teachers irrespective of their classification on the basis of cast, creed or religion. The basic definition of education is considered as the observance and analysis More

Internal reforms
This refers to the menace of corruption and the faulty system of governance in Jammu and Kashmir. No doubt we need the Right to Information Act as a weapon to combat corruption, but to root out the disease completely, it is essential that the system is reformed internally. Combating corruption is a big More

No surprise
The report submitted by the Central Bureau of Investigation on Shopian double rape and murder case is no surprise. The CBI was brought to hush up the case. The agency has lost all credibility among the masses for presenting such a shocking report. It is time for the Jammu and Kashmir government to do More

Rising prices
The rise in the prices of the food items in particular and  price rise in general  has hit a common man. Every day the rates change and one finds it difficult to manage even a small family. A common man is helpless and the authorities are turning a blind eye to this phenomenon. No doubt the More

Another chance
This refers to the Class 10th results declared by the JK BOSE. As usual, many students failed in the examination this year too. However, it is time for them to learn a lesson rather than losing heart. Failure is a chance for a man to think and sort out the problems. It is never later to make a new beginning More

Hollow claims
This refers to the government’s hollow claims of improving the human rights situation in Jammu and Kashmir.  Were the government sincere, it should have openly rejected the CBI report on Shopian case, which is a blatant lie. Hurair Hazaarihurair_056 More
