  1. It is unfortunate for the world especially for India particularly for the people of kashmir. To my knowledge the DNB was close to stop its function for conducting its courses but when dr jalal sahib take as vice president the situation all together changed and this institution progressed and the Govt was planning to make him as president of DNB.He has done so much for this society without taking any consideration but it is shame for this society that people have not come on streets in order to find out the culprits who have killed such a great personality.By seeing all this it is good not to help this poor and needy people because in return they give you nothing.In this society one who is hard core practitioner and earns money and lives a luxurious life he lives a long life and this society respects such people…It is shame not for those people but also for me as we could do nothing in order to find out the culprits
