Day 18 of #AJKReferendum2023

Tough but that is how resilience is created.

I have always felt that my home/ancestral tehsil (subdivision) Sehnsa is the toughest of all 32 tehsils throughout AJK. Tougher than Haveli or Barnaala.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 159 of 2023

0833hrs:

Progress is discernible but not as yet overwhelming, as it is likely to become in the coming days, weeks and months.

We have now improved our daily routine to waking at 0730hrs, half an hour's improvement on yesterday (viz. 0800hrs) but still one and a half hour away from our optimal target of waking at 0600hrs. Nevertheless, we will get there.

Here's our daily morning walk video:

#AJKReferendum2023 - Day 17 - #Kurti #Kotli #08062023 That morning walk in the lush greenery of our motherland is the best way to start the day. We are inching closer to the target time of 0600hrs. Today, we reached 0730hrs. pic.twitter.com/yGO1mCw0tw

A productive day commenced with a lecture on productivity at Dhamol, Kotli:

We were then requested to give a brief lecture on #AJKReferendum2023 :

Later in the afternoon, we had our first TikTok interview of the day which also happens to be our eleventh TikTok offering:

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 158 of 2023

2355hrs:

Onwards and upwards....

We are posting very late in the day because of an absence of connectivity where we were this morning. It is encouraging that we have improved on our daily output routine by waking at 0800hrs today, as opposed to the customary 0900hrs we've been accustomed to over most of our #AJKReferendum2023 tour thus far. Remember that our optimal target is to wake up at 0600hrs.

Here's our daily morning walk video:

We took out time this afternoon to visit a bereaving family of Karela Majhaan in Nikyaal where one of them - Arshad Taj - was allegedly murdered in a nearby forest on Saturday the 3rd of June. The police have been reluctant to pursue investigation and the family have a barrister sister - Fauzia Taj - living in the UK, who has returned home to pursue justice for her brother. 

We were unable to meet Fauzia as she had proceeded to Kotli to further her campaign. However, we were able to meet Arshad Taj's other siblings Sadia Taj (who also happens to be a PTI politician) and Waseem Taj. The views of the latter two were captured in the following video:

In green pastures near the LOC at Goi:

....

As anticipated, the Government of AJK and the Government of Pakistan are playing it sly, in reference to absorbing this territory into Pakistan without the all important people's reference. Here's a letter written to the prime minister of AJK, written by the founder of the Centre For Jammu Kashmir Public Diplomacy Qauyyum Raja, urging the former to make the content of the recent 15th amendment public. The fact that the AJK legislative assembly is not making this amendment public speaks volumes about the intent of both the Pakistani State and its political proxy in this territory:
