where are we leading

The moment I arrived back from my Delhi trip, my first experience of my beloved land Kashmir was so bitter that I’m once again forced to be dejected with the inhabitants of this piece of land. After witnessing the troughs and crests on the political landscape of Kashmir in the year 2008, everyone stands shocked about the behavior of the Kashmiri people who change their loyalties like the dresses and are so hypocritical in their action. From a common layman to the highly trained professional almost everyone is driven by self interest which manifests in their behavior. This valley is unfortunately called the land of rishis or pir-vour, where the people are considered to be highly motivated by religious doctrine but in real sense the people in Kashmir have shed off all the religious obligations from their character. Of course the religion has taken a backseat in the other societies of the world also but that has happened because of the evolution they have gone through from the religion based society to a morality based society, a society where equality, justice and scientific attitude have gained primacy. Ours is a society in chaos, where lawlessness is the law and where normal is dubbed as abnormal.

After a deep sleep last night which relieved me of the fatigue and weariness of the long journey from Delhi to Srinagar, I once again started my daily routine which isn’t like that of metros where the people don’t find time even for themselves. Here we have enough time to indulge in all sorts of non sense activities. Reading Greater Kashmir in the morning has become a habit and a part of the daily routine. All the top separatist leaders are away from the valley, was one of today’s headlines, igniting yet another debate about the significance of separatist leadership in the re emerging political scene of the valley. Some may say that the separatist leadership has lost the ground but the reality is that Kashmir issue has become a cricket match where one is not sure which way the match is leading to and whether it may end in a draw. In this whole process, the Kashmiri society is getting deteriorated and sick.REHBAR HI REHZAN HAIN YEHAN, IS WATTAN KA KYA ANJAM HOGA.either a catastrophe or a revolution can bring reprieve to this hapless society
