B L Saraf must educate himself properly
This refers to B L Saraf’s article “ A Vision Clouded”(GK 23 Nov 2010). Mr. Saraf had criticized Arundati Roy for raising her voice against human rights violations in Kashmir which I think is a weird reason to criticize. The writer sees Roy’s vision as clouded regarding Kashmir and justifies his stand MoreKeep cool
This refers to news titled “Mirwaiz attacked.” The news has come as a shock to me. Such incidents are always condemnable. There is no doubt that the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits in 1990 was unfortunate. It was of course well planned and well executed by outsiders. Kashmir has always been the victim of MoreWhat now?
This refers to the article 'What Now?' by Dr Rumana Makhdoomi. I completely agree with the author that hartal politics has done us no good and instead crushed half of our population without any positive outcome. We need an unconventional result oriented strategy to achieve freedom rather than aiming MoreBadamvaer calling
The historical Badamvaer at the foothills of Kohimaran has been in disarray lately due to the negligence of its staff responsible for its upkeep.

This refers to the article titled "Remembering the Star" by Dr. Javid Iqbal. Tears rolled down from my eyes after reading this article. I liked the way he has described the personality of Khawaja Sahab who was the patron of Kashmiri journalism. His column ‘Khazar Soachta Hai Wular Kay Kinaray’ will always MoreProfessionals required
Given the challenges facing educational institutions, we need libraries and librarians now more than ever. Unfortunately, there are many persons who are ill-equipped to understand these challenges or the role librarians can play in helping teachers and schools to meet them. The librarian is a person MoreObama disappoints
This refers to Amit Kushari's article "Obama disappoints Kashmiris" (GK 20 Nov). The writer has aptly summed up that Kashmiris do not have a Ghandhi to show them the correct path of struggle and from day one they were misled. If Kashmiris had followed the Ghandian principles they would have by now MoreRemember greats
Simply a great article by Dr. Javed Iqbal on Khwaja Sahab. I wish the present youth don't forget our heroes of past years. All great people who have contributed one way or the other must be remembered by the nation. Greater Kashmir, we hope, will continue its untiring efforts to keep our history afresh More- Kashmir
