I thought to pen down my incidental experiences while in Kashmir during the affected time, especially in January 1990 and thereafter.” Also Read - Just Like a Book?

I have tried to express those incidents which I came across and experienced. My heart bleeds for everyone who suffered because of the black night irrespective of religion, caste and creed,” said Rajan Nakhasi while recalling the fateful night of 19th January 1990. “My heart bleeds for my elders who unfortunately and unnecessarily suffered for no-fault. My heart bleeds for all those who were targeted. I can’t provide a solution to the sufferings but I have only expressed my perception in the book. I have not written in terms of an either-or account that academicians generally tend to give. Nor have I tried to be politically correct. “This is not only my book or my emotional outburst but this is everyone’s story. The younger generation who were born outside Kashmir have almost no idea about culture, rituals and others things. I want them to read the book to know. “Let us all pray for the peace, prosperity and good times to prevail. TathaAsthu!” he said. Speaking on the occasion, Chief Guest Dr. Bulbul Dhar praised the content of the book and the dedication and honesty of the author for putting in impartial content. Col Vishen got emotional while speaking on the occasion. The excerpts from the chapters of the book which he had read made him emotive and he requested everyone present to read the book.
