From June, the 25th, we've been seeing sea changes here in Kashmir. The people of Jammu have enforced an economic blockade on Kashmir. The union government is watching as a mute spectator. Now the fruit growers, who witnessed losses worth hundreds of crores, tried to export theit fruit produce through the LOC to Muzzafarabad. This, according to me, should have been allowed because this is the only option to save them from severe losses. When they macrched towards Baramulla, they were fired upon by the police killing many people. After commiting a folly, the government while trying to hide their fault imposed a curfew with shoot at site orders. Again killing many people. We, at Kashmir, are now facing shortage of essential items. The food, medicine, fuel and every other item is about to get finished up. The Kashmir marriage parties are known for their robust feasts, but due this blockade, about 90% of the parties are being cancelled. The streets here remain deserted due to curfews imposed by the civil authorities.
I, in my personal view, find the HINDU ORGANIZATIONS, responsible for this act. They have never been able to win elections in Jammu and Kashmir and now they are playing cheap politics by using Jammuites against Kashmiris. The Jammuites complain that the Kashmiris discriminate against them and they have been left far undeveloped. But if the facts are to be taken into consideration, they are more developed than us. They have a much better infrastructure than us. They also have a far less number of unemployed people. All their charges are baseless. Its evident they the facts they are raising are all hoax and they want something else in its disguise.
