Corrupt politicians can’t do any good to nation

It is really a shameful act that our so-called 'respectable politicians' are busy in expanding their property while as the innocent kids are being killed back home. Instead of showing sympathy and doing justice to the families of these innocent youth, the politicians are indulging in purchasing villas More

Déjà vu

This refers to Muhammad Shafi Pandit's letter Déjà vu, (GK July 19, 2010). I refer to the last line, which reads, “It is high time for all of us to ponder as to why we continue to suffer and suffer and suffer and how we can come out of the quagmire we are in.” The underlined part of that sentence More

Hollow slogans

Kashmir is under siege. Violence is going up and so are the prices of essential commodities. No one is answerable to anyone. Name anyone or any section of society, we show no regard and we don’t contribute towards our society when it is so badly needed. We only believe in hollow slogans and when it comes More

Take steps

Kashmir has lost so many precious lives in the past few weeks. But the handling of the crises by Jammu and Kashmir government, led by Omar Abdullah, was quite disheartening. At the grassroots level, a party like National Conference looked helpless and could not utter a word to mitigate the sufferings More

Typical Kashmiris

I appreciate the role of Greater Kashmir in helping every Kashmiri outside to stay connected with the valley. When I was doing Masters in University of Kashmir, I remember how we started the agitation against the invasion of US on Iraq. Anything odd happens to any part of the world, Kashmiris are on More

Just introspect

 I appreciate your editorial titled “introspection”. You have highlighted the sufferings of common Kashmiris in a brilliant manner. As a Kashmiri I am unable to understand the happenings around. I don’t feel any difference between troops and those who damage vehicles, ambulances, shops and houses More

Right analysis

This refers to Sajad Bazaz's write-up "Organized Madness". The writer has briefly but rightly tried to analyze all the parties to "Kashmir Dispute". India tries to avoid the most volatile Kashmir problem, however the neglected spark can result in an uncontrolled fire that may engulf the whole India. More

Two days

To keep the Kashmir issue alive, we have to fight against the enemy. For sustained struggle, it would be better to fix only two days (Friday and Sunday) in a week for peaceful agitation and complete Hartals. Rest five days in a week may be spared for business and education activities as common people More

I agree

This refers to the article titled “This rage has a reason" by Hameedah Nayeem. I completely agree with the writer. She has rightly justified her statements. It is true that nowhere in the world stones are responded with bullets. The government should respect the sentiments of people and should immediately More

Kashmir burns

This refers to the article "As Kashmir burns - who cares!" by Seema Mustafa (GK July 5). The author has portrayed a real picture of Kashmir. She is right in saying that everyone is engaged in booking their coffers and maintaining their positions and there is no one who cares about Kashmiri. Faisal More

Nicely elaborated

This refers to Prof G R Malik's four episodes on  "The Men of the Cave (Ashab al-Kahf)" published on 11th,18th, 25th June and 2nd July 2010. The author has very lucidly described the life of Ashab -i-Kahf and traced their origin in accordance with Quran and Hadees-i- Nabawi. There is a lot of message More

Not easy

Today's opposition that was in power at the time of land row is giving lessons to the present government about human rights and human values. But we all forget that Kashmir is a conflict zone and the conflict has not been resolved for the last so many years and it is not a normal state to govern. Anyone More
