I am planning to make this post ASAP (as short as possible).. My vacations are going to end soon and then I will just remain with the memory of the short visit to the valley.. There is an important observation I would like to share.. While there is a group of people who are actively involved in the protests (stone pelting, sloganeering etc), there are many more who are just not bothered.. These others can be seen in places like PoloGround, Nishat, Shalimar and ChaliPoint-enjoying themselves.. Today was a hartal, I wanted to go somewhere.. I told my mom that we could go for a drive to Nishat Bagh and then back.. Sheagreed.. The car drove past the infamous house of Mr. Geelani, the atmosphere was spooky.. Only a few cars zooming past every now and then.. Hardly any person on the road.. >>>Fast Forward>> PoloGround-Cricket and Football
>>>Fast Forward>> Nishat and Chali Point- Traffic Jam.. Horns.. People.. Enjoying..
I am tired now.. My left leg is stiff.. The result of a infinite sequence of stopping and moving.. I am at my home.. Note to self.. Hartals are just for crazy people like us.. No net result in the end..

Hello everybody I am launching a new blog http://kashmirlifestyleblog.blogspot.com/ Plaese visit
Hartals are just for crazy people like us .. lol
Well I prefer to put it in a slightly different manner... We are crazy because we think hartaal is not for us! Tell me brother if someone does not care when Shopian is on boil, can he expect solidarity if Allah forbid something similar happens to him... which can never be sidelined!!!
Yes people talk about bread, butter and business and tourists and life and death but ask them what they would do if it was their that was a victim in Shopian???
lol.. I know.. We should care for our brothers and sisters and feel their pain.. True! But what I meant was something different and funnier!! I meant the "wiser, intelligent" people were the ones in PoloGround, Challi Point etc and fools like us supported the hartals!! Understand! oh my brother in Islam!!
