Dr. Ved Pratap Vaidik - The New Doctor For Kashmir ?



Dr. Ved Pratap Vaidik a the new doctor for Kashmiri illness. Issue of Kashmir is a full time retirement engagement for likes of Dilip Padgaonkar,Ram Jethmalani Prashant Bhushan, Kuldeep Nayyar etc..
The ridiculous propositions they suggest for the solution of Kashmir problem ,only goes on to convince us that in the domain of territorial sovereignty the argument of morality is a non-starter - Rana Raj K Singh ( Attorney of Supreme Court )

#kashmir #india  #news #vaidpratapvaidik #babaramdev #terrorism #controversy

Earlier this week the freelance journalist Dr. Ved Pratap Vaidik sparked a controversy after he, met the Jamaat-ud-Dawa chief in Lahore on July 2 while touring Pakistan with a group of journalists and politicians invited by a peace research institute. India accuses Saeed, the founder of Pakistan-based terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba, of orchestrating the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks in which 166 people were killed.


And today  he triggered another controversy saying" I have always been in favvuor of azadi (freedom) for the people of Kashmir..Azadi yes and separation no. Kashmiri people should get the azadi same as the people of Delhi " In an interview to Pakistan's Dawn News, Vaidik  


Vaidik’s skill at selling himself is evident from his website  where he claims to have “rubbed shoulders” with several prime ministers, presidents, external affairs ministers and guerrilla leaders and to be “one of the most reputed mass orators in India”. He has also posted his photographs with such leaders as Hamid Karzai and Nawaz Sharif. Soon after he started his career he displayed his uncanny knack of finding access to the influential and powerful. He grew close to the then PM Indira Gandhi’s adviser P N Haksar and soon became the founding editor of news agency Press Trust of India’s Hindi wire service ‘Bhasha’. After a 10-year-long at PTI, Vaidik shifted to leading Hindi daily Navabharat Times as its opinion page editor. Dr Vaidik who continues to cultivate leading politicians , currently writes a weekly column in Hindi which according to Vaidik is published in over 200 newspapers

Dr Vaidik a close aide of Baba Ram Dev Vaidik's meeting in Lahore with the Jamat-ud-Dawa chief, who is known for attacking India in his speeches, has led to a ruckus in Parliament, with the Congress attacking the BJP. Yet The New Doctor For Kahmir remained defiant and said "I put my life in danger. Congress leaders are making a noise in Parliament. Agar unke neta milne jaate toh unka pajama geela ho jata, stretcher pe lana padta. (If one on their leaders had gone to meet him, they would have peed in their pyjamas; they would have had to be brought back in stretchers). They can raise the issue in the Parliament but nothing will come out of it,"

I really wonder if we rather the BJP Govt can let go off  Dr Vaidik for his recent meeting with Hafiz Sayeed , a 26/11 mastermind who is believed to have said " There can not  be any peace while India remains intact. Cut them,cut them so much that they kneel before you and ask for mercy " And his recent controversial interview that sparked another controversy saying that there is no harm if Kashmir is made an independent nation. ?

"Pari Mahal " - " Fairies Abode " Srinagar , Jammu and Kashmir (pictures/images)


"Pari Mhahal " also known as" Fairies Abode" is situated on a hill top of Zabarwan Mountain range in Srinagar , Jammu and Kashmir. Pari Mahal  was built by Dara Shikoh the eldest son of Emperor Shah Jahan and was used as an observatory to study astronomy .Pari Mahal , a seven terrace garden ,overlooking the Dal Lake and The Royal Spring  Golf Course in Srinagar  is an amazing splendour of Mughal Arcitecture.The name Pari meaning Fairy always intrigued me until my recent visit that gave a new dimension to my thought process or I should rather say left me wonder weather Pari Mahal/Fairies Abode was visited in the past by extra terrestrials in the past ?
