The party which destroyed the carriers of hundreds of Cricketers by making Jammu Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA) its political & family fiefdom, the hotbed of corruption, today claimed the credit for J&K Cricket Team reaching the`1st ever final of the Ranji Trophy as J&K beat West Bengal by 6 wickets in their own home turf.
For kind information of these credit-takers, the foundation stone for this achievement was laid down in 2021 when BCCI took over the JKCA on the directions of J&K High Court & the Association was freed from the clutches of Abdullah family. I hope they will understand it now! All credit to players, Management & Coaches.

Congratulation & best wishes for the final

Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it’s courage to continue that counts
OP-ED, VIEWS BEYOND NEWS
Doda, Jan. 15, 2026
Yesterday, a class 12th student died by su***de in Doda district of the Union Territory of J&K after failing in 1 subject. The incident is tragic & has ignited debate over, supposed to be, family, peer & societal pressure on students after results are declared. And an argument is being floated that we must stop appreciating the achievements of the achievers especially on social media platforms. Argument being given is that as we keep appreciating & sharing success stories, those who lagged behind or failed get dejected, distressed & depressed. I just want to dismiss this argument as false & far from practicality.
My argument is this…..why should we not appreciate & celebrate the achievements of those who burnt midnight oil to excel & achieve? And why should those who didn’t work hard or achieved less owing to any or many unavoidable circumstances, feel envy for those who achieved or get depressed for not doing what was in their own hands? Rather than feeling envy or feeling low, they should retrospect on what went wrong & why, & what could be the best way to avoid that. And most importantly, why on earth the achievers should feel less appreciated for the only fact that their appreciation/enjoyment may give the feeling of being inferior to the ones who failed to achieve what was expected of them or what they themselves expected, why? I mean how can this be justified?
Let them own their failures, recalibrate themselves & prove their worth to the world at the very next opportunity rather than feeling down or thinking of taking the extreme steps. Let the parents, peer, relatives & society teach them the right way to achieve things & be strong mentally. Let their parents, mentors & teachers teach them how to face adversity & still be strong enough to not give a damn to negativity, let positivity overcome the negativity. And finally, let’s not forget or not be in oblivion that achieving higher marks in an academic exam proves or disproves of one’s capabilities, & this needs to be understood by all the stakeholders, be it students, parents, teachers, peer groups or society in general.
Having said the above, let me reiterate, let’s not intermix & misinterpret things. Let’s enjoy & celebrate with the achievers & guide, encourage & not demean the less fortunate ones, the failed ones! Let me end my arguments with famous British Statesman, Military Officer, Writer & former Prime Minister of United Kingdom Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill’s famous quote, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it’s courage to continue that counts”

मुझे किसी समुदाय से कोई प्रॉब्लम नहीं है, मेरा बस इतना सा प्रश्न है कि क्या किसी काश्मीरी #मीरजाफर या जम्मू के #जयचंद ने इन बेगुनाहों को 05 मरला ज़मीन दी, उनके आंसू पोंछे, उनके दर्द को मेहसूस किया? नगरोटा जगती में जाकर काश्मीर से निष्कासित काशमिरी पंडितों की सुद ली, क्या किसी "पड़े लिखे" कुलदीप शर्मा ने रात भर उनके लिये रोया, क्या किसी तानिया शर्मा ने उनको गिफ्ट डीड हाथ में थमाई, नहीं न? कहाँ दफ़्न था ये दोगला #भाई_चारा तब??? तब इन्सानियत किस नानके गयी थी??? कहां गयी थी ज़मीर??? कहाँ म_र गये थे तब ये दो कोड़ी के Fb journalist जो अमन_का_तमाशा और भाई_चारा प्रोपेगेंडा चलाये न थम रहे?

Sorry but my heart, mind & eyes bleed on the thought & sight of these jih_adi terro_rist incidents not for some state land capture & demolition case!

One doubt in the minds of people & perhaps the most important reason didn't receive much recognition as a Social Media App was that the messages weren't end-to-end encrypted, thereby raising serious concerns about the safety & security of personal & official communication.
Now, with the launch of end-to-end encryption of messages, the concern has been effectively addressed. Hope, it receives it's due recognition.
Thankyou Zoho for doing the needful, hope the servers too are upgraded to cater to the ever growing traffic, so that the users get the luxury seamless messaging.

LEADERSHIP Is More Than Just A Naïve POLL STRATEGY

It’s Leadership Rather Than Poll Strategists That Wins Elections

Nov. 18, 2025

In deciding to shift gear from being a Poll Strategist to an active Politician & forming a political party named Jan Suraaj in the run-up to Bihar Assembly Elections-2025, Prashant Kishor (PK), was in constant misconception that it was he who made the Brand Modi in 2014, destroyed it at will during 2015 Bihar elections when he sided with the Mahagathbandhan, an Alliance of Rashtriya Janta Dal (RJD), Indian National Congress (INC) & Left parties including Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Liberation (CPI(ML)L), Communist Party of India (Marxist) ((CPI(M)) and Indian Inclusive Party (IIP), made the Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) win 62 out of 72 Seats in National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi’s Assembly Elections-2020, & helped Mamta Banerjee form Government in West Bengal in 2021.
Obviously, he may have reared this misconception since long but it matured in the run-up to the Bihar Assembly elections-2025. He thought he's the boss, he was in constant over-confidence that whosoever politician or a Political Party, he sides with, wins (though he already failed disastrously in UP as well in 2022 Assembly Elections, when he managed the campaign of INC & lost it, he either failed to judge the real politics or willingly wanted people to believe that he's the boss, has magic wand which can do anything. Same was evident in his claim/challenge he made during a recent interview with Channel’s Manak Gupta that he will quit politics if Nitish Kumar’s Janta Dal United (JDU) gets more than 25 seats in Assembly elections-2025. His aspirations to rule Bihar & to plunge into active politics were based on miscalculations, he made & misconceptions he reared.
The 3500 km (foot march) he carried out in the entire length & breadth of Bihar wherein he tried to consolidate his support base proved a disaster just like that of the failed start-up of Congress leader & Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi's so called Bharat Jodo yatra & Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. Rahul was taught the lesson by people when he failed in the start-up by not even being able to cross the three figure mark in Parliamentary elections 2024. Though there may be difference of opinion & perception, because his party & his followers still believe he’s the winner since, Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) failed in reaching the majority mark on its own yet as a matter of fact, his PR exercise in launching the nation-wide Bharat Jodo yatra 2022-23 which spent around Rs.71.8 crores as per the party’s annual audit report filed with the Election Commission & nearly Rs. 49.6 crore was spent by the party on Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra that took place between January 14 and March 16, 2024. In the same vein, people showed PK his worth when he won BIG ZERO in 238 seats his party, Jan Suraaj contested in the Bihar Assembly Elections-2025.
People made him realise that it's the leadership of the politician in question that wins elections & not some so called poll strategist's magic wand. May be the combo of both leadership & strategy proves beneficial but if somebody misconceives that some Poll Strategist's magic wand can do everything that's not the fact, at least the Bihar Assembly Election results have proved it as of 2025, who knows, he may prove it wrong next time! People of Bihar made it very clear to him & to the world that Politics is not everybody’s cup of tea & that the LEADERSHIP is more than just a naïve POLL STRATEGY!
