A
stranded Pakistani soldier on the Line of Control identifies himself,
yet receives bullets in response. He looks at the soldiers, their
uniforms and then realizes they are not the ones who are trained and
groomed. They are just a group of frustrated and desperate men unaware
of the Geneva Convention Laws or do not bound to it. Their minds are so
much poisoned that human and moral values do not matter. They are not
bothered to commit actions which may be considered heinous crimes. They
are not conscious of any accountability rather expect to be praised for
immoral acts. Why do they forget that in the past many Indian
straggler soldiers were returned safely by Pakistan Army. Even when a
helicopter landed in the Pakistan
territory with Indian officers on board, they were safely allowed to go
back. What a reciprocation of our kind and large hearted gestures?
Martyrdom
of our soldier should be a lesson to all about the hollowness regarded
to the sanctity of international laws and values in the Indian Army.
What should be expected of such a neighbour who holds a slogan of ‘Aman
Ki Asha’ in one hand and a gun in the other?
Anwar Mukhtar, Islamabad.
