Mian Abrar, Islamabad Curfew in IHK Kashmir A curfew was imposed in Srinagar because Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to the capital of the occupied territory to inaugurate the Kishanganga dam, built in violation of the World Bank-sponsored Indus waters treaty of 1960. The only choice for Pakistanis is unity. Only unity can help build a powerful Pakistan that will be able to stand up to India's design to steal all of water that morally and legally belongs to Pakistan. I have no doubt the time will soon come when Kashmir will be free and be part of a prosperous Pakistan. Huzaifa, Kashmir Message from Ghaza Once again violence returns to Palestine when on last Monday(May 14)Israeli forces bathed Ghaza in blood. The peaceful Palestinians gathered near Ghaza strip to stage a demonstration against shifting the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Undoubtedly, the Israeli troops were fully backed by the USA in this act of violence. To condemn the ghastly act of terror unleashed by Israeli forces and to display some semblance of unity among Islamic countries, OIC also sprang into action. Sheikh Qasim, Ghaza Power of Voters The dramatic low turnaround of voters in previous general elections in Pakistan is primarily a result of gradual diminishing of public confidence in the government. Therefore, it is equally important that in order to bring about any positive change in this country, the awareness regarding the real power of a vote should be professed to the general public. In a democracy voting is the only tool which can represent the will of the people and safeguard their individual as well as collective national interests.
