The Indian armed forces have yet again shown as to how they matter for the state, be it during fair weather or be it during inclement weather.
They've evacuated thousands and thousands of people marooned in difficult areas and continue to be the saviours of the hapless people. Their efforts go round the clock, by day and by night, so that the people are out of harm's way. The combined efforts of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force along with the paramilitary forces have yet again shown their continued relevance in the state's well being.
I was waiting for the chief minister of J&K to come up on prime time and acknowledge the good deeds of the armed forces. Instead, he's been deafeningly silent! He's no right to play politics over a natural calamity. Is it because he's losing his cool over his continued inaction on the matter of governance and is foreseeing the rout of his party in the forthcoming elections?
And the other most interesting observation is the studious silence of the separatists viz. the Hurriyat. Those guys aren't even visible among the suffering millions when they claim to be their champions! And what is the opinion of the squeak, Yasin Malik, about the Indian armed forces which had literally fished him out of troubled waters? Not that it matters in any way, any more!
While praying for those who'd met their untimely end, it's my fond hope that the brave hearts would be instrumental in the Kashmiri peoples' settling down to normalcy once the flood waters have receded and its fury, subsided. It's also my fond hope that every individual on the civvy street acknowledges the Indian armed forces as their friend, during their good times as well as their bad times.
Tailpiece.
Time and again the Indian armed forces have retrieved the state of Jammu & Kashmir from its numerous crises. The politicians, then, take over and make a mess of things while being petty trying to maintain their relevance. This, essentially, is the state's problem!
