Get together
Hats-off to journalist community of Kashmir for reporting in hostile conditions. But then it is the way journalism is: to report what otherwise we would never know. You had to face curbs, restrictions and what not, yet you came up with the internet edition. Great job done! Since politicians have failed in Kashmir, that is why it is the young boys who seem to have taken over this struggle, without realising the dangers attached to it. All politicians across the table, whether they be mainstream or separatists have let people down and even after so many deaths, pain and agony, we see them on different platforms making their own politics and leaving a common man on the street wondering as to what will come next. Which faction will call for "Chalo" or a Bandh. Which party will accuse the other party for the unrest and the blame game never ends. It is the time to get together and come to the rescue of a common Kashmiri who is reeling under tremendous pressure and whose survival is in danger both politically and economically.
