The Domestic Violence Bill, which was passed unanimously by the National Assembly in 2009, has been ignored and disregarded by the government. The bill served as a great step towards protecting the rights of the vulnerable citizens who face double injustice in form of abuse and lack of protection provided. The government of Punjab claims of adopting the Bill, but with no recourse, abuse of the vulnerable continues.
5th February marked another year for the Kashmiris Fighting hard for independence.
What has been your contribution? Zero…
I remember those 14th August days, when almost everyone was on their rooftop at 8 am in the morning. With paper flags, a dori and bowl full of paste made of water and flour. Used all these to decorate the entire house.
Those days are long gone…
But this year InshaAllah it will be different. With kids coming for holidays, I will make sure that we will celebrate 14th August with all the spirit that used to be.
Kashmiris are still fighting for their lives, and we who have Freedom, fail to realize its importance.
It’s a pity.
