Very unfortunate

Whether the death was caused by a stone or a tear gas sell of a bullet - does not matter. What matters is that a blooming child who was yet to open his eyes on the world is no more. Kashmir has lost another child. When shall good sense dawn on our politicians and the imbroglio shall end? I express More

Media bias

Basically the problem with Indian Muslims is that they fear the media much. Only few have access to education and if one tries to reach to the media he is being crushed. The same thing happened to Dr Zakir. My suggestion to Dr Zakir is to invite all those who were present on that day to his show on Peace More

Negative thoughts

This refers to Write Hand Dr. Zakir fights back by Ajaz ul Haque. He is spreading negative and misleading thoughts about a person who is doing a great deal of good to muslim community and Islam.

You cynical

This refers to Write Hand Dr. Zakir fights back by Ajaz ul Haque. Does he think that Islam is what Shah Rukh or Soha represent. Even if he thinks so, but does it give us a right to say anything against someone who spreads the message of Islam selflessly. Criticism is always welcome but not Cynicism. More

Lines jammed

It is shocking to block telephone communication in the city on the visit of prime minister. The life and the security of the citizens was threatened as there was absolutely no communication. I can appreciate that security measures need to be taken for the PM but it is inhumane to block communications More

Killing youth

The killing of Tufail Mattoo is really shocking. The killing of youth has now become a routine in Kashmir. It seems as if the lives of people especially youth have become very cheap in the Valley. Should stone pelters be treated with bullets? Azeem WaheedMore

Ruined family

This refers to the news “Shell hit head” (GK June 13). It is clear now that police is behind Tufail Matoo’s killing at Rajouri Kadal. It also belies the government claims that stone might have caused his death. The gruesome killing has once again ruined a family and has put the entire Kashmir on fire More

Mobile schools

One basic need of being humans is correct application of mind. And the best method to apply the mind in right direction is by acquiring knowledge. The simplest way to get knowledge is to get education. In the present scenario in Kashmir Valley, lot of children are not going to school and thus not getting More

No solution

This refers to the article titled “Hair chop is no solution” by Aarzoo Khan. I completely agree with the author that we cannot thrust education on students nor can we thrust discipline on them. What we need to do is change their mindset, honorably and not by force. It has been rightly said that education More
