Grand feat
This refers to the news "Palhallan teenage girl turns novelist" (GK June 9). It is indeed a moment of pride for all of us, particularly the residents of Palhalan. Ruqayia Shabir becoming a novelist at the age of 15 is a grand feat and a commendable job. We must encourage her so that she writes more and more and makes us proud. Kashmiris indeed bring laurels wherever they go.
