have we forget the kashmir issue?

Kashmir, the valley known for its beauty. Justifiably termed as ‘paradise on earth’. Well known for its culture, food and heritage. Kashmir, no doubt a place on earth which is seeking for recognition from many years. This place is sacrificing from their money to lives with no hope of freedom. Their shrieks are too low to hear for those who are indulged in their own fun of collecting money. Their blood no worth to them so, far it’s their fortunate now. Every time this issue comes into highlights, generated some curiosity and settle down without any conclusions. My questions for all are ‘are they human beings? If so then why they have not the right to be called independent. Their children are not children? Dont they deserve a better and peace way of living? Don’t they deserve better education in peace environment? Why their voices are dumped in terror of fear? Why not they are as free as I m? Why every single person missed their every part of live which has to be lived up to the expectation?
Who is responsible for all this?
Blame who? Government, history, their fortunate or just blame u and me?
Why it is always treated as to be part of Pakistan or to be part of India?
I wish it tend to be treated a part of world where human survive and want to grow too. They are striving hard to live. Why nobody does any better for them? Well said by someone;
‘‘none who have always free been free can understand terrible fascinating power of hope of freedom to those who are not free’’
We are selfish. Indeed this is a harsh world where no one thinks for any ones pain. We are still sleeping. If any one have heart or feeling who is reading this my humble request is to all of them is now the time to raise our voices, we the youth, the assets,proud,and the largest popularity of our nation are going to speak speak for those who are our brother and sisters. We are going to make our voices reached to the world. The least we can do. The better we can do. Something we can do for the sake of humanity. We going to stop the immoral cruel on the people of Jammu Kashmir. They are slave but we are free, cant we become their voice as we too survived the pain of being slaves in the past.
Let us join our hand and unite our voices for the people of Kashmir. No long the day will come when Kashmir will be stated as a free. Soon one morning will bring the light of freedom to them. Let us not give them the hope. Let us give them the gift of freedom. I have done my bit. Its time for your least to do for your brothers and sisters.
