Kashmir No More A Paradise On Earth, Says Yousuf Tarigami

Four-time former MLA Mohd Yousuf Tarigami (73), speaking on the condition of the state and current situation of Kashmiris said the state was ‘Paradise on Earth’ but is no longer the same.

“Paradise on Earth is getting lost. There is still something left to salvage. The people of Kashmir had rejected (Muhammad Ali) Jinnah to embrace (Mahatma) Gandhi and join the secular Indian mainstream. It’s time that the people, not just Kashmiris, protest the unconstitutional coup that is nothing less than a big terrorist act vis-a-vis the Constitution,” he said speaking in an interview with the Telegraph in a small hotel room in central Calcutta on a chilly January evening.
