Bullet for Bullet

Bullet for Bullet, is a mind blowing peace of writing that speaks volumes about Mr. honest’s double speak. Surprisingly in an era of information technology when information moves faster than electricity and spreads faster than the wild fire how does Mr. Azad accepts others to believe his contradictory sermons? The writer has justifiably described Azad as a shrewd politician. He speaks what suits him politically. Had this not been the case he wouldn’t have advocated bullet for bullet policy while speaking at a gathering in Haryana and advocated soft policy against terrorists while addressing a gathering of Muslims in New Delhi. By speaking differently at different occasions Mr. Azad has harmed none else than his own credibility. Hence forth he should better be remembered for being a hypocrite rather than a true nationalist.

Fading Glory of Poonch

Fading Glory of Poonch speaks volumes about the neglect of this historical township that once enjoyed the status of a capital of an independent Principality. Obviously the Government that has failed to even improve the drainage system of this small township cannot claim putting the State on the path of Khushhali. Also, a Government that is still depending on the royal palaces for housing its schools and colleges has no right to be called as a popular Government. The author of the write up being an eminent educationist there can be no reason not to believe his charges against the working of the UEED. If the Government is sincere, the matter should be probed and appropriate steps taken.

President’s Painful Presence in the Paradise

President’s Painful Presence in the Paradise is a bold attempt to pull up the organizers of President’s recent visit of the Jammu and Kashmir state. The writer has rightly said that despite there is a perceptible change in the situation the message is negated by the visits of VVIPs when whole of the State is turned into a fortress thereby causing immense hardships to the people. VVIPs visit the State because it is there constitutional right and duty, but why should there be so much of publicity that can attract the attention of militants and prompt them to go for a strike? Let the VVIPs come silently and return silently or their security should be so effectively managed that cannot affect the routine life of a common man. Otherwise these visits will prove more harmful on the diplomatic front where our assurances that the Valley is fast returning to normalcy look hollow.

Was Hushyar Singh and his wife

killed by agencies?

Was Hushyar Singh and his wife killed by agencies is an interesting account of the gory incident. By analysing the facts of the killing of the progressive leader whose International Democratic Party, IDP was known for its peace initiatives the writer has dispelled all theories that lead to the involvement of agencies behind Hushyar Singh’s killing. The writer is true to say that militants didn’t sneak into the Indian side merely to kill the family of a human rightist whose utterances could indict the security forces for doing access. The writer has successfully conveyed his view point that the militants were for some thing bigger and had agencies been so critical about Hushyar Singh’s criticism of security forces they should have targeted the KT Chairman who knowingly or unknowingly has earned the notoriety of being an official spokesman of separatists. The above article has left no doubt about the intentions of the militants who had come to make a bigger news than killing of a common man and if the writer says that their target could be the army quarters he may not be wrong to say so.

Down the Memory Lane

Down the Memory Lane is a well composed obituary from the heart of a younger brother. Only he who has lost his sister can understand the grief of Mr. Manhas, but name a person who has not lost his sisters, brothers, parents and children? The author might have been a hurt man, but the hard fact of life is that the way the wounds of others have healed the injury caused to the writer in the death of his sister will also heal though gradually. This is a hard fact of life and this every body has to experience. I was told that her funeral procession was a historic one which was a befitting tribute to the wife of a patriot who has sacrificed whole of his life in service of the nation. People should not forget the sacrifices of patriots and thankfully people of Bhadarwah have not forgotten them.

Refugees Betrayed

Refugees Betrayed, is a tragic tale of those who were forced to leave their home and hearth in the wake of bloody partition and subsequent wars between the countries so formed. Though becoming refugees was not their fault, they are reaping the penalty. The refugees have been clamoring for their genuine rights for past many decades, but without causing any effect on the deaf ears of he authorities. If the writer says that the meagre rehabilitation amount announced by the Prime Minister during his recent visit was like sprinkling salt on the wounds of the refugees he is justified to say so because only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches. The Government must take immediate steps to provide genuine rights to the suffering refugees otherwise the party at the helm of affairs should keep itself prepared to face the ire of refugees during the up coming elections.
