Srinagar as usual,
In another incident, Army vehicles loaded with supplies were pelted with stones as they tried to make their way through Srinagar.

Guys, emotions aside, we need to watch TSP taking advantage of this situation. Already the Harried b@stard is speaking his master's voice about bringing in UN. What can one do with such an ungrateful pig?

Debate on Human Rights Situation in Kashmir Causes Stir in UK Parliament
A debate on the human rights situation in Kashmir to be held in the UK Parliament building tomorrow has caused a stir among Indian groups here who fear it could be used as an India bashing opportunity.

Liberal Democrat MP David Ward has secured a 'General debate on political and humanitarian situation in Kashmir' as part of the regular Backbench Business Committee application process in the House of Commons.

Based on a petition by the 'Jammu & Kashmir Self-Determination Movement' which gained around 5,000 signatures, the Bradford East MP was able to push for the debate calling Kashmir dispute a "threat" to regional and global peace and to give the people "right to self- determination".

It has raised concerns among some Indian groups regarding the timing coinciding with the September 11 attacks anniversary as well as the focus of the debate.

"A number of British Indian organisations have contacted us expressing concerns on this Kashmir debate development in the House of Commons at this time because they fear that it could be used as an India/Indian bashing opportunity," said the Leicester-based British Hindu Voice in an appeal to its local MPs.

"If possible, please speak in the Kashmir debate and let your constituents know your and your party's stand on this subject," the appeal adds in reference to Leicester MPs Keith Vaz, John Ashworth and Liz Kendall.

The British Parliament's Backbench Business Committee meets weekly to consider requests for debates from any backbench MP on any subject, including those raised in e-petitions or national campaigns.

These debates are held in a chamber within the House of Commons complex and aimed at lobbying UK government on specific issues.

Around 20 British MPs, including Ward, Labour's shadow finance secretary Shabana Mahmood and secretary of the All Party Parliamentary Group for Kashmir Richard Harrington, are lined up to address the debate.

Frankly speaking, Asuric tendencies accentuate during crisis. While we would expect a relief boat with food packet to be received with gratitude, a entitlement pasand mind will crib about the delay in arrival of the food packet. OA is trying to justify instead of admonishing the wrong behavior. If he had said "anger is understandable", I might have given him the benefit of doubt, no way is the anger "justified". He should have said "Anyone obstructing relief work is an enemy of the suffering people" or something to that effect.

^ To be fair to him, everyone in Kashmir is nothing but obstruction..It would have been the same response if OA's Daddy or Mufti "release the terrorist" sayyed or Mufti's good for nothing daughter were in power.

Let those pelting stones or being marooned be allowed to enjoy hospitality of Jhelum for few days. We would have seen a total different reponse.

Wish there was debate in Indian parliament about providing moral support to Scotland for next coming referendum.

Cut diplomatic relations with UK. Openly support Irish independece and armed action to evict brits. Provide "moral, political and diplomatic" support to them openly. No visa etc to any brit to visit India including people of Indian extract.

No D class nation should be allowed to get away with this.

True. Typical kashmiriyat whining and melodrama. People were marooned but their lives were rarely in immediate danger. The valley is drained naturally quite well.

Words like "international" and "conventions" come to such people only when they can't gang up and massacre some minority. Our beloved army has spent precious time and efforts to help these ungrateful jokers just so that they will be going back to backs tabbing routine once flood situation is over. Reminds of Karna in Mahabharata who started lecturing others on dharm the moment his chariot wheel was stuck in battleground.

Meanwhile back in the real world............

Also should we cut relations with America too? After all they pump billions to the Pakistani establishment who in turn launch attacks on and murder Indians. What about China - surely we must cut off ties with them given what they've been doing at the border.

Where will you stop?

You read my mind.

Instead of 'rushing to the well' etc. we could have debates on Scotland, Ireland and Wales with resolutions urging freedom

In addition cancel orders for any new Gov purchases from UK. With most of other nations interested only in business, we can isolate the racist scumbags.
Also express concern in the parliament for human rights violation of Rotherham women by other "Brits". Even a moron like I.K. Gujral called UK a 3rd rate nation, when the UK foreign sec, talked about J &K.

Was posted on my wall by a friend...
Just talked to our neighbor who yesterday returned from ZETHYAR by INDIAN AIRFORCE PLANE to Jammu, he narrated that process of evacuation is going per trip only 60 persons were boarding on Decota plane to Jammu...This process will be continue till every Kashmiri Hindu got shifted to Jammu.

He also narrated that local boatmen didn't pick any Kashmiri Hindu and Sikh from the localities of Inderanagar, Shivpora, Jawaher Nagar etc. and bluntly speak Modi will save you-- we have to save our muslim people during during local rescue operation...After that Army played vital
role in evacuating Hindus from these areas hats off to our army.

Local boatmen charge Rs1000/= per person for evacuation. Also Zeshta Devi Committee President Sh.BB Bhat along his team played vital by approaching Governor well in time for safe evacuation of Kashmiri Hindus to Jammu.

Atleast on twitter chatter, there is an attempt to forge a narrative that "local" groups are helping more than anyone else. And pleas are going to UN and other ummah countries for help.
It takes a special DNA to behave like this.

Is there any need for Art 370 when they cannot even pitch in to rescue babies during floods?

So what is Art 370 there for protecting?

In any other country, such an attitude by majority would make headlines and the locals would be subjected to investigations and punishment if found guilty.

Is there a way to thank the Army and let them know that we are proud of them in these difficult moments when they are working for 24 hours despite stone pelting and traitorous attitude KMs?

It is as if floods never happen in any other parts of India. What about swathes being washed off almost every year in Bihar. Bengal and Assam? People do not stone army folks bringing relief material.

The following story by forbes was found : the headline itself says disputed territory as if Kashmir is not an integral part of India. It further says the govt, especially Modi govt or State turned Nelson's Eye to the problem. Which is not true. Media has praised Modi's effort though being Muslim majority.

Please reply to comments section and post saying the author is a muslim and Forbes is trying to create bad impression among Americans. That too with the impending visit of Modiji to US.

Please write about the media coverage by the western media to the calamity

Sorry Abhi_G, I would rather have these KM's suffer and rot like so many other things. Ungratefulness should not be rewarded. Sometimes a kick on the backside is the best medicine.
As always KM's just sat on their bums including the current CM and hoped that IA and GoI would save them as always and that is exactly what happened and yet these ingrates complain.

We need to read the story of scorpion and the frog once again.
