Even after such a tragedy, they (India and Pakistan) have not been able to rise beyond petty politics. |
It is a frustrating experience. |
My son went to the local authorities to ask if we could get permission to meet my relatives but they are mum. They have been telling him to come the next day. I still do not know if they will let us go. |
We are a region with two masters. One is India and the other Pakistan. Each of them want to stick to their viewpoint and we are at the receiving end. In a calamity such as an earthquake we should be allowed to take our own decisions. |
