The top opinions on twitter retain the author’s views and mannerisms. Standly Johny @johnstanly, wrote “What did we achieve in Kashmir other than satisfying our majoritarian ego? Delhi’s refusal to see the scrapping of article 370 as anything short of triumph has transformed potential regional dialogue into India facing two nuclear – armed militaries on two fronts. Meanwhile, Pakistan has demonstrated its desire to build peace through opening the Kartarpur corridor, returning captured Indian pilots, inviting Delhi for collaboration on COVID, and vocally keeping the door for talks open. There have been difficulties in the region, most unfortunately by design. What India fails to realize is that no cosmetic. Legal changes or military siege can ever undermine or strangulate Kashmiris’ struggle for right to self-determination. It is important to never forget that that lockdown restrictions many of us find difficult to live in are the way of life for many Kashmiris in Indian Illegally occupied Kashmir and it is essential to detail the many atrocities of the Indian State. The world has an obligation to Kashmir under the United Nations resolutions. The world must act now. Indian State is a demographic apartheid since August 5, 2019. It has to account for 95,647 Kashmiris killed from 1990 till date by Indian troops. The entire illegal occupied Kashmir turned into an open -air Prison. What brutalities have happened in the last 365 days we can only imagine. Vested interests have will-fully looked the other way and thus ignored what state-terror the Indian state was indulging in humiliating and killing Kashmiris for no fault of the innocent and unarmed people locked into an open-air prison. Once again, we clearly tell world that the only resolution to the illegal occupied Jammu and Kashmir issue is political as there is no other way, says Prime Minister Imran Khan. Institutional reform is needed everywhere. Corruption and issues of mismanagement, inefficiency incapacity and inability invite our attention and systematic study of problems that bother decision makers. Wealth and power worship being the practical religion and foundation of governance has turned society and state of Pakistan into the domains of hatred. hallucination hopelessness, and above all prejudice and hazards. Under the framework, democracy, national institutions, national constitution, elections, governance, and due processes are mere instruments of crude, cunning, callous, and even criminal power plays between and among hunters and Scavengers. The story of independence and survival of the society and State of Pakistan remain the lasting tale of wolf and lamb against the streams of evolution and systems of civilization. Politicians keep an eye on the power pie. And there are others to get their share. If the main narrative continues to be crying the past and not a focus on problem solving it is a negative reflection on the top leadership. What if consensus could be developed on issues which are the concern of the whole nation, including the opposition. Note, divisive from of governance cannot help resolve issues. To tackle issues related to peace and security, a society needs good governance, competent government, professional and institutional approach with an eye on requirements of responsibility, authority and accountability as well as responsiveness and merit. In our context thana culture has not changed in spite of efforts. Biased reports from officials provide help and support to corrupt and criminal elements against law abiding citizens. We perhaps. Need to re-look at the wisdom of the Punjab police (Efficiency and Discipline) rules 1975, that confer sufficient powers upon senior police officers to deal with the delinquent police officials at whatever level. Trade and commerce could contribute to improving bilateral relations between states in normal socio-geographical setting and psychology of politics Writ against the delinquent police officials is long overdue to bring desired change in police handling and mishandling issues. Independent Pakistan deserves clean, responsible, and accountable police personnel who value merit and truth. Those not sufficiently trained and tested should not be assigned the task of investigations and reporting. Violating this basic rule would be unlawful and irresponsible. Let justice be delivered through competence, merit, wisdom and honesty. Things could have been different is an after thought, plan with vision and wisdom. Focus on challenges. I appreciate Imran Khan often referring to Riasat-e-Madina as a state model for Pakistan to follow. The greedy and corrupt are the road-block in our desire and hope for a state like “Riasat-e-Madina”. The corrupt are a source of dysfunctionality of state institutions. Thus, peace security and justice remain a rare commodity. What we need is to stay away from falsehood and distasteful behaviors. We need to use politics as an effective instrument of leadership and resolving conflicts for long lasting cooperation for peace and security. There is no room for blame game and mismanagement. The state needs to be strengthened. “Misak-e-Madina” (Treaty of Madina) was the true form of democracy without prejudice, accommodating all interests. Fortifying state institutions requires us to be competent and honest. While talking of good governance we cannot ignore “the pandemic and political order”. This is the topic of the day and test of world leaders in managing the virus and managing the people and the state of economy. On this topic of the day professor Francis Fukuyama is one of the top experts to put us wise on a complex yet important subject and to analyze the situation worldwide to point out indicators leading to possible predictions. It is dealing with a complex issue, which is fluid too, most important factors to keep in view are leadership, resources, and social consensus to fight the disease and strategy to prevent the spread of the virus. Trade and commerce could contribute to improving bilateral relations between states in normal socio-geographical setting and psychology of politics. The question is what could effectively reduce political and diplomatic tensions where neighbors are enemy by circumstances and historical eventuality? Policies and politics are the lead determinants of outcome. India is feeling isolated now in regional and international politics. Is Modi prepared to rethink of his anti-Pakistan Mind-set and Indian state terrorism against Kashmiris. There is something called “window of being” (“zat ki khirki”) Self-seeking was a barrier I ventured to remove it disconnect that had happened, was taken care of effectively, till restoration satisfactory, sufficient the reality proved, I had drifted away from reality itself, glancing out the window of self-seeking, I discovered a world, that in fact was where I belonged, the world of my people, whom I had ignored . I have my relationship with them all, why should that link not stay intact? When the realization came open, I pondered, and discovered, hope was positive in the offing, I surrendered all wishes, I restored all connections thus.
