Tumbakhnaari here: Kashmir echoes in America

I fully endorse the views expressed in the article titled “Tethered to roots”. It is true that Kashmiris try to maintain their separate ethnicity wherever they go and very rarely do what Romans do. On Eid day here in Buffalo all the Kashmiris putting up here were invited by a leading doctor over dinner More

Embarrassing Thakrays

Every morning I check your paper on internet. It’s just like my morning tea and without reading Greater Kashmir I can not start my work. Your news and your views keep me in touch with my birthplace. However, when the entire India was backing SRK's My Name Is Khan there was not a single word from you More

One error

I read the article "One error costs one life" by Prof. M S Khuroo. Well, if it is for the Medicos of Kashmir, then I think the best way to convey this message to them would have been through some interactive session or through some medical journal. Why teach ordinary people the concepts like morbidity More

BSF involvement

The arrest of a BSF soldier and suspending an officer in connection with the killing of the teenager in Nishat is a good beginning vis-à-vis checking the human rights violations in Kashmir.

On one hand the government laments over the lack of funds and on the other, it burdens the state exchequer with such decisions More

Not publicity

This refers to the article titled “Fame in the name” (GK Feb 13, 2010) wherein Mr. Altaf states that SRK had deliberately created the hype to promote his new film, My Name is Khan.  But SRK films don't need any promotion to do a good business. SRK is a brand name in itself and needs no promotion More

Understanding responsibilities

This refers to the present situation in Kashmir valley. The government seems to have forgotten the Newton’s third law that “to every action there is equal and opposite reaction". If we analyse the present situation, it is more disturbing for the last few months than it were before. The reason is that More

‘Legal’ terrorists

This refers to the article “Thackerays: India’s Legal Terrorists!” by Surinder Mohan (GK17-02-2010). The article speaks the hearts and minds of aam aadmi. The author has logically conveyed a multi-dimensional truth with a remarkable seriousness which sheds light on other side of the soft terrorism duly More
