Impractical suggestions cannot help in anyway
The suggestions offered by Dr. W.H.Andrabi in his letter published in GK dated 08.03.2011 for tackling dog menace are far fetched, and not practical.  It is not even remotely possible to catch all the dogs and segregate them from bitches and then confine them to mere 10 Kanals of land with fence More

Arbitrary arrests
This refers to the news “End arbitrary arrests: PM.” The Prime Minister has rightly observed that the arbitrary arrests must end. The Jammu and Kashmir government would be doing great injustice if it continues with the policy of repression. It is time to give space to dissent and allow people to express More

Breeding corruption
One fails to understand where from the state government would get the salary for the unemployed youth whom it is claiming to recruit in the coming years when it has no funds to pay the arrears and even the DA of already working employees. In fact, by holding back the dues of employees the Government More

This refers to the debate on private practice. There are a large number of patients waiting to be treated in the hospitals but unfortunately there are very few doctors who can treat all the patients cautiously because there is no time. So many patients go back without treatment. They have to beg or borrow More

This refers to the news ‘Hope separatists join talks: Manmohan.” It is indeed sad to observe that New Delhi is not serious about the dialogue process with separatist leaders in Kashmir. So far none of the demands of either Mirwaiz Umar Farooq or Syed Ali Geelani has been accepted. Mirwaiz has put forth More

I was going to use this quote in one of my own articles, and asked Dr. Fai to review this, since I have a working More

Ban it
We need not to unnecessarily generate some sympathy for the doctors who are fleecing patients in more than one ways. Most of them behave worst than Pharaos of modern day and treat their patients as lesser mortals (with apologies to those who take their profession very seriously and try to serve their More

Good article
This refers to the article "Womanhood: Between Home and State" by Naila Neelofar. It was an excellent write-up on the occasion of "International Women's Day". We can easily understand the importance and contribution of a woman to the society because this is the only species which converts a building More
