ARIF BHAT
It is often said when a man walks in clouds of mist his mind his soul is in a haze. He doesn’t understand the reality, his mind plays games making him believe things which just appear in mind but are not real
Such was our condition of people of Kashmir before 2019. We were pushed towards the mist of misunderstanding and confusion. There were people who wanted us to just wander in the mist and be forgotten in shadows away from reality of life. We wandered aimlessly in directions whose paths were filled with self-destruction and false promises. We were shown the beautiful picture of heavenly pleasure but the reality was more frightening than the abyss of hell.
2019 was the year when the mist started losing its hold on us and we started our journey towards light. We never knew that beyond this mist there is a different world. A world which is full of opportunities and hope. In the mist we could never hear the sound of music, which was the sound of success empowerment opportunities and self-improvement.
Walking in the mist our minds were filled with sound of hatred and mistrust. Never could we hear the sweet chirping of birds who decides her own freedom. She sings her own song never getting influenced by others. 2019 was the year when we started hearing these sweet chirping. We started to understand that the path that we were walking till now was never ours. We were just travellers who were used to perish and make way for others. The dawn of 2019 gave us new hopes. Our heart rekindled the love for our Owen self. We now do not want to be Pawns for others. In the game of chess, we don’t want to be mere soldiers but want to be Kings and Queens.
This self confidence in us is developed because of the efforts taken by the government. Abrogation of article 370 has bought a positive change in our lives. It has shown us path of self-confidence and empowerment. Now we are not dependent on decisions taken by few selfish persons who had their day before Abrogation. Today there is a government who thinks about us. They are making efforts to improve the economical and standards of living for everyone. Education for children has been given priority along with Initiatives of setting up commercial and Industrial units. Education and employment are 2 important pillars for a society to prosper. After the Abrogation new opportunities are coming our way in terms of industrial giants, corporates and topmost educational institution showing interest in setting up base here.
After Abrogation people from outside are given a chance to buy land here this will change the atmosphere bringing in positivity and jobs for everyone. We will no more be dependent on Tourism or Dryfruits exports for our living. There us going to be development in every sector with new schemes and benefits from the Govt. There will be equality in livelihood. We will be getting a chance to show our intellectual in fields of Computer science, engineering Trade retail. From our state itself we will draw the map of prosperity for our country. Like other states we will have our kids working in corporates offices here. Our children’s will not have to leave the state for better education. Government schemes in field of Commerce, education and sports is a big boon. Many Sportspersons from the state are bringing medals for the country. This is a positive sign.
We think the Abrogation has removed us from the mist of uncertainty and brought us in light of Hope. We no longer have too worry for the future of ourselves or our kids. We know that the abrogation had opened up new paths that will improve our lives in terms of better education jobs and living conditions. There will be no more worries of our kids picking up stones but peace in our hearts knowing that they are going to have books and financial stability in their hands.
Abrogation is a boon for future generations a light which spreads Hope Happiness and Prosperity. In the Map of Prosperity Abrogation of article 370 is foundation of development and Peace
