Kashmir floods 1

A great natural calamity hit our native state of J & K in the shape of recent disastrous floods, the impact of which was more conspicuous in valley of Kashmir. It is a great treagdy which has befallen after a record time of century.. Most of the rescue operations by  Army, paramilitary forces and local volunteers with cooperation of central and state Governments have been accomplished and much remains to be done. There also remains a herculian task of rehabilitation of people  In the aftermath of floods.
However, I was astonished by comments made by some of persons belonging to kashmiri Muslim as well as Hindu community on social media sights and TV channels. I also believe that views expressed by few persons of a community do not represent the views of whole community but they help in creating the wedge between communities
Army and paramilitary forces did a commendable job in rescuing the people irrespective of their creed cast or colour. But it was not possible for army to reach every nook and corner of valley. Therefore, it was the exigency of situation that some local persons had to come forward and help people. But that does not mean that we should redicule army after we feel our steps on solid ground.  Moreover politicians and extremists have to grind their own axe and their views  can not be attributed to the views of common man.
In our community also few persons may think that they have avenged the catastrophe they faced in 1990. But this is wrong and  these are not the views of whole community.
There are also rumours that some local boatmen are blackmailing the people trapped in flood by demanding huge sums for their rescue. But black marketing in catastrophes and uneven circumstances can not be ruled out and let us hope that good sense  prevail upon them so that they will do their job selflessly.
Every reasonable and God fearing person will prey till the last person stranded in the valley is rescued and help and cooperate in their rehabilitation.
