Day 34 at Maqbool Bhat Shaheed Square - Dadyaal.
 |
| 0853hrs |
In 34 days of sitting at the Square, today has been my most appalling time on record! 53 minutes late!
....
The pot calling the kettle black is what comes to mind after reading the following notification from the district administration of Muzaffarabad:
Translated thus:
Press Note
Muzaffarabad (09/07/2022) During the current month (malicious) written and verbal (speech) content has surfaced from within various types of social media websites and WhatApp groups about the State and departments of the State (of AJK). Such anti-State (and State institutions) written and verbal material are liable for prosecution under prevailing laws. Such content cannot be ignored in any manner. Formal legal action is underway within Muzaffarabad against the fraternity of those characters who are directly or indirectly involved in these accumulated illegal acts. Formal notifications have been sent to monitoring teams at the level of every police station to track such social media website activity, to investigate such written and spoken content and strictly enforce legal proceddings against those characters involved.
Signed
Spokesperson District Administration
Muzaffarabad - 09/07/22
End of translation....
So, the idea is to victimise and prosecute anybody in the public who identifies corruption and other illegal activity on the part of government employees. With the absence of an accountability mechanism in AJK, such inhumane behaviour is the norm.
We are not fighting this without reason and if such a system functioned in any 'developed' democracy, the inhabitants there wouldn't either.
