Punish guilty and the credibility will be restored

This is in reference to the continuous killings and human rights violations taking place across Kashmir valley during last many weeks. Elsewhere also there are protests, but nowhere force is used as it's used here. Moreover We have seen many inquiry commissions appointed in the past whenever any More

SMS ban

The ban on the SMS service in the valley is really uncalled for. The Central government is really disintegrating and exploiting the current situation of the valley. This ban has affected many people. The Central government must lift it.Bazaz Muhammad FaisalOak Hill Institute of Education More

Students plight

This refers to the plight students of Kashmir are experiencing at present. Hartals, curfews, killings, mournings have been an integral part of Kashmir. We, the people of Kashmir have already offered about 20 precious years of our lives to this ongoing struggle; but what did we get? What is our achievement More

EVDO speed

It's disappointing that despite many complaints lodged about the malfunctioning of BSNL, they are not taking things seriously. Their EVDO Speed is simply frustrating. It's worsening since last six months. EVDO subscribers are being fooled. The speed never crosses  20 KBps which should be 100KBps More

Even GPO

It was surprising to see even General Post Office closed on 20/07/2010 in view of the ongoing hartal. This office would remain open even during the eruption of militancy, but this time GPO officials too preferred to take rest. A courier carrying my prospectus for admission to Symbiosis Institute  More

Guide people

We don't expect media to glorify strikes and hartals, but educate people and guide them so that the damage is minimised. For God's stake let's understand our duties and do not get carried away by the wave of the times. We are answerable to our conscience.Mushtaq Bukhari ‪<More

Education suffers

Educational institutions of Srinagar are closed and this must disturb us all. We must understand that we can't move ahead if our education suffers this way. We are spoiling the career of our children.  Muhammad Amin Sheikh <sheikhamin007@gmail More

Why protest?

We, the youth of Kashmir, the future of this beautiful valley are getting killed, injured, baton charged, humiliated and we are being dubbed as “terrorists”. We aren’t a bunch of psychos going on rampage from street to street village to village, still they are trying every measure to defame us. Are the More

Just rethink

This refers to the statement "Aasiya flays restrictions". I don't agree with her when she is talking about the disclosure of areas which according to her are not supporting the present movement. There is no area in Kashmir which is not supporting the present movement. If it's only stone pelting, damaging More

Unbearable now

It is very shocking that teenagers are being killed. Why isn't the government acting on the situation? The present situation is very unfortunate. Now the government should act so that peace is restored. We are suffering on all counts. Tabiq IqbalSrinagar More

Not sincere

 This refers to GK editorial titled “Mansions on corpses “(GK July 21). You have presented the naked truth about Kashmir politics. Undoubtedly, the Heaven on Earth, Kashmir has been turned into a hell. Politicians are busy amassing more and more wealth, promoting favoritism and nepotism. They are More

Resolve Kashmir

The resolution of Kashmir issue must take into account the wishes of people living on both sides of the Kashmir divide. The requirements of a peaceful resolution are well known: The Government of India must honor its constitutional pledge to allow significant autonomy to the people of Jammu and Kashmir More

Talking development

This refers to the recent meeting of Congress high command at New Delhi. It is disgusting to see New Delhi talking about developmental and anti-corruption plans at the time when the entire Kashmir is on boil. New Delhi should talk about the worsening situation in Kashmir and the recent killing of innocents More
