For the first time in 19 years, a whole year passed without any cross-border shelling along the Line Of Control between India and Pakistan, the result of a ceasefire agreement built on backchannel talks.

But in Srinagar, who will hear them? Javid Qureshi and Altaf Thakur? There is no big BJP face in Srinagar. In Delhi, they only asked for statehood. Now, in city, they are talking about Article 370. That’s interesting, double speak: one position in Srinagar and another in Delhi.

There is a clear difference between throwing and distributing, and he can clearly be seen throwing these items.

'I never sought entry into NC, you personally invited me': Rebel Ruhullah tells Dr Farooq

[Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi @RuhullahMehdi]

Rest assured, the resignation will come. It would have come even without you asking but before that must come accountability.

I have written a letter to my party President, Janab Dr. Farooq Abdullah in response to his public demand for my resignation. Awaiting his response to the questions I have asked in this letter.

[Sajid Raina @SajidRaina1]

It's central claim that snakes are “disappearing” from Kashmir is not adequately established by the evidence presented. Much of the reporting relies on memories, individual observations and rescue-call numbers, none of which can by themselves demonstrate a population decline.

The other side of Kashmir's Srinagar

[IndiaToday @IndiaToday]

#Srinagar is staring at an alarming ecological catastrophe, with environmental watchdogs warning that the city is becoming a "slum in the making." Nearly 11 lakh metric tonnes of legacy waste at #Achan has now turned into a mountain of garbage—a living example of the monumental government failure to tackle the issue as it spirals into a civic crisis.

Dr Farooq Abdullah has been like a father to me. If he wants this matter resolved, I have three suggestions. If these are acted upon, I am ready to rethink my resignation. "

‘Na Karan aaya na Arjun aaya!’ @Pawankhera claims HM and PM went ‘missing’ inside Parliament. Listen in

[Rajdeep Sardesai @sardesairajdeep]

NOTE: PM Modi and HM Amit Shah make a token appearance in the Lok Sabha on the final day, as the House is adjourned sine die. Parliament historians struggle to recall when a PM as Leader of the House was absent from the House during an entire Lok Sabha session. Hopefully, this precedent will not be repeated. Each side will blame the other, but Parliament and parliamentary democracy deserves better: dialogue, debate, not disengagement and disruption. 🙏

People reveal themselves when they have power over someone who cannot retaliate. Watch how they treat subordinates, strangers, waiters, employees and those with nothing to offer. That is a better measure of character than how they treat equals.
