Trouble in Afghanistan is trouble for South Asia
This refers to the news titled “India to disfavour NATO forces exit” in war ravaged Afghanistan. This has reportedly been said at a multilateral conference on Afghanistan in London recently.  This exposes the malicious intentions of the Indian leadership and its policy towards Afghanistan. They More

Cricket diplomacy
This refers to the article titled "Cricket diplomacy and the Indo-Pak peace process” by Ajaz A Wani (GK Jan 28).

Corruption menace
This refers to the article titled "Root it out" (GK 30-01-2010) by Barkat Ali Wani. I agree with the views expressed by the author regarding the menace of corruption in Jammu and Kashmir.

I completely agree with the author saying that “sitters or fighters, die More

Painful story
This refers to the article titled "The story of pain" by Sameer-ul-Hassan. The author is right in saying that India just wants the land in Kashmir, and is not bothered about the people, who are being killed by the forces, day in and day out. The killers are shamefully roaming free. Aamir Nabi Wani More
