Immense loss

This refers to the untimely death of Izhar Wani, a prominent journalist of international repute. I have not seen him, I have not talked to him, but I feel his loss. I read most of his stories written over the years as a conflict reporter from Kashmir. He worked with dedication and poured his soul in reporting conflict out of Kashmir. In him the journalist fraternity in Kashmir has lost a gem. May his soul rest in peace.
