Futile Jodo Yathra

#Futile Jo

do Yathra

The Yathra Barat Jodo aimed at solving his Party's factionalism issues in the states and mobilizing the organizational structure is about to end. This may have given impetus to a significant number of workers.

However, the sad thing is what Rahul Gandhi said in Kashmir about the status of J&K.

He made a big mistake in criticizing the central government's decision to revoke the special status of the former state. He said it as a serious insult to the people of the region. This is completely unwarranted and unacceptable to the majority of people in J&K and the rest of the country.

What Rahul Gandhi gained from his yatra has gone ashtray with this thoughtless comment. Restoration of statehood of Jammu and Kashmir with special provisions is detrimental to our country.

Not all are terrorists

Not all are terrorists

Dispute over a cultural programme held recently at the inauguration of the school youth festival, is unwarranted

The portrayal of a man in Muslim attire as an extremist in the host program is not contrary to popular belief. It was an accurate representation. I say this because all the fearsome ISIS terrorists appear in Muslim attire. Bin Laden or Mulla Omar are not Kashimiri pundits to change clothes to woo Muslims.

There is no need for the government to look into the matter as the show was an accurate representation of the true facts. This does not mean that everyone in Muslim attire is a terrorist.
