Nearly four lakh Kashmiri Pandits were hounded out of their homes due to this turmoil and thousands were killed. Some put the present figure of the number of exiled Kashmiri Pandits at 7.5 lakh. No commission or probe has focused on ethnic cleansing and the genocide of minority Pandits, which led to their exodus from the valley. Moreover, the persecutors are roaming free in P O Kashmir
If she is being fed thru nose and she is surviving for last 13 years like this, then what's the meaning of this fast? Whether she takes food thru mouth or thru nose, how does it make any difference to govt or anybody else. Is this the only way to bring a change. And moreover, when she knows it has not worked for last 13 years, why not break her fast and do something else.

In our country nothing can be achieved unless it is supported by a political party! What a pity!
The political parties are after taking credit for freedom struggle but here they forgot what the founding fathers struggled for. With this we can say our governments are worse than the british rulers. Non-violance has become meaning less in this country i guess. No wonder if people choose violant method to make themselves heard.

Hats off for Sharmila's undaunted and uncompromising struggle protesting against the imposition of a draconian law curbing civil liberties in the northeast,especially in her state. Is there any sincere effort to normalise the situation by lifting that undemocratic law ? PRASHANTA JYOTI DAS, NEW DELHI -64
