Immature comments by Dr Tej Munshi

This refers to the letter “Let's save our children from becoming a canon fodder” by Dr. Tej Munshi published in G.K. With all due respect to him, it seems he has very poor knowledge of resistance and rights movement in Kashmir. Kashmiris are not fighting on the basis of separate culture and language More

Kashmir burns

India's foreign secretary Nirupama Rao actually echoed Prime Minister's speech he had in Srinagar on his recent visit. The agenda for talks does include a range of issues but all these seem to be aimed at showing the world community that all is well between the two countries vis-à-vis the vexed issue More

Biased comments

This refers to the letter by Dr Tej Munshi (GK 19-06-2010). Certainly there is malice in his comments. Dr. Tej seems to be disturbed by ideology propagated by the foes of Islam and Muslims, as is evident from the letter. It is nothing but intentional and deliberate reflection of his bias.

Misleading prefix

I read Dr M Chalkoo's article “Demeaning docs” in GK. In this age of internet when everything is just a click away, majority of people in India still are not able to differentiate between doctors of different backgrounds.

Unrealistic statement

This refers to the statement by Gen. Jaswal where he said that AFSPA is like a "holy book" for the security forces. It is a pointless comparison. The AFSPA has given unlimited powers to the security forces to kill Kashmiris and get away with the crime. We are facing violation of human rights day in and More
