| | Remembering Sarwanand Kaul Premi: A Poet, Patriot, and Martyr of Kashmir on His 36th Martyrdom Anniversary | |
By Rohit Tikoo
Hazaron saal nargis apni be-noori pe roti hai, Badi mushkil se hota hai chaman mein didavar paida.
(For a thousand years, the narcissus weeps its own blindness; with great difficulty, a man of true vision is born into the garden.)
— Mirza Ghalib
Sarwanand Kaul Premi was one such rare visionary.
Thirty-six years ago, terrorism cruelly took him and his son, Virender Kaul, from us. Their lives were extinguished not just for being taken, but for their unwavering convictions, their refusal to abandon their homeland, and their choice of dignity over fear.

As expected, the United States and Iran failed to reach a peace deal after high-stakes talks in the Pakistani capital, with American Vice President JD Vance saying Tehran refused to accept Washington’s terms after 21 hours of talks in Islamabad. And Iran citing lack of American commitment to the talks.
The talks termed as ‘Islamabad Talks’, lasted a full day of negotiations, which ended with a terse three-minute press conference — and without a deal. Talks between America and Iran began on Saturday afternoon and continued through the night, almost 21 hours in all. The sun had risen in Islamabad, the Pakistani capital, by the time JD Vance emerged to brief reporters.... |
