A diesel engine carrying excited schoolchildren rattled through Kashmir’s paddy fields, past green mountains and over bubbling streams, as the Valley saw its century-old craving for a train service fulfilled during one of its most troubled times.

Kashmir: A tolerant country within a communal state

Kashmir has been known for Kashmiriyat, an epitome of tolerance towards other communities and religions, has been unfortunately been under the tyrant rule of communal India. Kashmir for over centuries has been an independent country, having trade links with central Asia, China and India (and Pakistan). But as fate may have it our country has been under a communal regime. India has never been a democratic, secular country but is an illegal entity, a combination of various states, where a few communal minded people have taken over. Breakaway demands are rising, be it North-east, Punjab, Bodo movement, Naxalities, Maoists etc.
Most of my Kashmiri people who are struggling to get food, clothes and shelter in the hood are so concerned with that, that philosophizing about freedom and socialist democracy is usually unfortunately beyond their rationale. They don't realize that India can't exist without separating them from their identity, because if we had some sense of who we really are, there's no way in hell we'd allow this country to push it's genocidal consensus on our homelands. This ignorance exists, but it can be destroyed.

The three regions JAMMU, KASHMIR, and LADAKH are one nation. As different as we have been taught to look at each other by colonial society, we are in the same struggle and until we realize that, we'll be fighting for scraps from the table of a system that has kept us subservient instead of being self-determined. And that's why we have no control over when the embargo will stop in here, or when the bullets will stop firing
Indian “rulers” have always been bogged down by Hindu fanatic forces, so you could not prevent the pulling down of Babri Masjid, the bloodbath of Sikh’s , the carnage of Christians ,the massacre of Muslims in Gujrat, the list goes on……….
I'm quite sure that people will look upon my attitude and sentiments and look for hypocrisy and hatred in my words. My revolution is born out of love for my people, not hatred for others
Based on such ideology you cannot expect any thing better for Kashmir. The recent Amarnath land row should be an eye opener. But now the communal design of Hindu fanatic forces is getting sinister, these people are hell bent to change the demography of Kashmir. The recent so called “lease of land” is a step in this direction. You cannot sell land to outsiders but you surely can lease it. But it is wrong.
You cannot change the past but you can make the future, and anyone who tells you different is a lethargic devil. I don't look at a few token KASHMIRI people in the public eye as some type of achievement for my people as a whole. Most of those successful individuals are sell-outs
But, I don't consider brothers a sell-out if they move out of the ghetto. Poverty has nothing to do with our people. It's not in our culture to be poor. That's only been the last 500 years of our history; look at the last 2000 years of our existence and what we brought to the world in terms of science, mathematics, agriculture and forms of government
Indians talk about change and working within the system to achieve that. The problem with always being a conformist is that when you try to change the system from within, it's not you who change the system; it's the system that will eventually change you. There is usually nothing wrong with compromise in a situation, but compromising yourself in a situation is another story completely, and I have seen this happen long enough in the few years that I've been alive to know that it's a serious problem. KASHMIR is a huge colony of three different regions whose politicians are cowards in the face of economic imperialism. You see, KASHMIR is a rich place, abundant in resources, and have the capacity to feed their starving people, but India forces the Kashmir’s into buying overpriced, unnecessary goods while exporting huge portions of our natural resources.
We cannot use our water flowing through our country while India is making merry.
In the end I would conclude by saying “No matter how hard you try you can’t stop us now”
