Understanding NC
`Understanding Sheikh Nazir' (GK 24th January 2013) by Abdul Qayoom Khan is interesting. Kashmiris have suffered because they followed short sighted and selfish leaders, but in the process they have evolved and learnt bitter lessons. The argument that Sheikh Nazir does not possess Indian passport has been against Kashmir Accord. That he has been against accession etc does not impress anybody now. Sheikh Nazir is a part of ruling family here. The NC government should work hard, and stay clean. Everybody is being judged on the basis of performance and not by jingoism or political harangues.
