Let sanity prevail

Do not play with emotions and pride of people.

Shouting, blaming, abusing and similar will do no good for nation. And this is true even if some people do it in the name of good cause or nationalism. Be sure about it. You are doing no good to nation or humanity. You are infact doing just the opposite - damaging the nation and humanity.

People often get overwhelmed but we have to be very prudent when it comes to nation and nationalism.

Get the facts right, be sensible and honest in approach and then say or do something.


About Kashmir
- Kashmir is integral part of India and will remain so. And this includes part occupied by Pakistan and China. Entire nation is one on that and is committed. We will get part of our motherland back, for sure. But for this we need to have united voice and result oriented approach.
- Our army and entire defense force is one of the best in the world. And they know their job well. They know how to keep nation safe. They know what to do, when to do and how to do. They have respect and support of entire nation. No one needs to tell them what when and how to do. We salute our forces. When neighboring nation is playing evil tricks, our forces know how to respond.
- We too need to play our role well. We must set our house in order. We need to speak in one language. We should not play blame game for selfish interest. Our borders must be secure to eliminate infiltration. We must have more effective intelligence to trace enemies within.
- When it is known that unrest is sponsored financially, we must find out who is financing unrest. Why banks are being looted?
- We must feel responsible when we post anything in social media. Nothing should be written or posted that spreads divide, hatred or bitterness.
- News channels must refrain from taking sides and creating disharmony. This is exactly what enemies want. Do not fall prey to them. Nation is strong united. News channels must not create divide.
- Article 370 must go. All political parties must come on same page on this. Status quo is detrimental. Let there be no half hearted or piecemeal approach.
- We need both approaches to run together. Strong action to punish who are in illegal activity, fueling unrest as well as making sure that innocent are saved. There must be dialogue not with fake leaders, but with actual residents of Kashmir including Kashmiri Pundits.

About nationalism and social media
- Be very cautious. Never play selfish game under cover of nationalism or presenting yourself of champion of nation, religion, language or even political party or leader. This is not only cheating the nation, this is a crime against humanity.
- No one should use abuses, filthy language, obscene intentions, threats or similar things under cover of nationalism. Do not give bad name to nationalism. If someone else is doing wrong then write against wrong action. Take stand against wrong but not by doing hundred times wrong.
- There is a tendency in some of talking big, thumping chest, insulting others in the name of nationalism or as champions of some religion, party or leader. Nationalism is not about thumping chest or shouting slogans. No one has right to question or certify another person's nationalism. How many of those who are shouting so loud on nationalism pay tax honestly. By cursing others you are proving biggest anti national. Two wrongs do not make right. We need to stop divide, hatred and bitterness. We need to speak in one voice. That is nationalism.
- News channels are also thumping chest on nationalism but do just the contrary. They too take sides, pass judgements and indulge in blame game. Loud, chaotic and senseless debates which are more about blame game instead on solution do more harm than good for nation. Their job is to put forward facts and let people debate about solutions. They must promote sanity and sensibility. But may be this is too much in asking.

Nation building does not take place by playing selfish ulterior game, shouting slogans, chest thumping or cursing and blaming others. We need to play our role with full commitment, be united, respect difference of opinion and work together towards constructive lasting solutions.

But for that we need to be honest with self and to nation. Are we ??

Blames must be probed

There is no doubt that it is crucial to bring wrong doings of anyone to surface and ask for appropriate action. This is helpful in checking wrong doings. But the manner it is being done, this is doing more harm than good. Some make allegations, media highlights it but the real action never comes. The purpose gets defeated. On the contrary this has become a negative tool to settle political scores. This is shameful and bad for nation.

There must be a standard protocol to be followed in case some people have some disclosures.

1. The allegations must be supported by documents and evidence.

2. If media is giving time to allegations then they must give equal and same prime time to defender so that they can put their defense forward. Media must not give their opinion or version. If they broadcast they must first broadcast a disclaimer and then broadcast it as it is without putting own headings. They must only broadcast from a neutral point of view without taking sides. They should not use question mark or hashtags showing support for allegation or dismissing allegation.

3. Allegation must be automatically converted into PIL where one putting allegation must submit all documents and evidence. The concerned authorities must submit their official version. Court must reach conclusion and if proved right then punishment according to law must be passed and if proven wrong then one who has made allegation must apologize publicly or face punishment as court feels right.

4. In case PIL not filed, one who is blamed should take proactive action and file a case to dismiss allegation along with warning and / or punishment to one who has blamed for baseless allegation and media for broadcasting such baseless allegations. Media must then print and / or broadcast apology for becoming part of such baseless allegations.

5. Similar protocol must be set for spreading false allegations on all mediums be it print, internet, social networking sites, whatsapp groups etc. Those posting or sharing such allegations must be equally accountable.

6. All political parties must issue their official stand on allegation if they decide to speak on it and that should become part of court case.


We must remember that just like home, nation too has an atmosphere. If we spoil the atmosphere then that is harmful for nation. We all have responsibility to keep nation's atmosphere healthy and positive.

Modernize Police

The time has come.

Police needs attention. There should be holistic approach to make police nationwide in tune with today's difficult times. Remember that nation can not take service of armed forces for granted to be used within nation. We must be well prepared for time when armed forces are needed at border and we have equally tough police force to tackle all possible situations within nation.

Time has come for police to get equally trained and equipped like armed forces.

Few points are must if we need strong and effective police force:

- There must be independent commission for police force to look after selection, training and service activity. This body must be autonomous and free from political influence. 

- They must be trained like armed forces for mental and physical fitness, toughness, alertness and action.

- They must receive high intensity combat training.

- They must get equipped with latest technology and equipment. 

- They must get training to act like professional army.

- They must receive satisfactory remuneration.


Police is responsible for crime control as well as social harmony. Both are crucial for development of nation. Effective and efficient police means peace and low crime rate.

It is always said that those doing wrong are always raising their game. Time has come for police to raise their game higher than those on wrong path.
