AFTER WE GET AAZADI , A QUESTION ??

How this small area, surrounded by mountains on all sides can be managed, once it becomes independent   ???

The answer lies in the following  ;

PREAMBLE TO SOVEREIGNTY 

WE DO NOT NEED ANY COMMODITY FROM OUTSIDE ; EVERYTHING WILL BE INDIGENOUS   !!!!

1.We will grow potatoes, if there is no rice or wheat supplies from plains .

We will eat potatoes and export potato chips to earn foreign exchange .

2.We will extract sugar from apples because sugar cane crop can not be grown due to climatic conditions .

3.We will live with "Laeshe"( wood ) when there is no electricity during winters. Our forests are full of such resources

4.In absence of any textile industry , we will make clothes from tree barks and leaves , because cotton can not be grown due to climatic conditions and major part of our land will be under potato cultivation .

5.We do not need medicines . We will revert back to our traditional things like, " Koth/Kuth"( Costus), "Rasaushadi" , " Kaw dachh/ Crow's grapes" ( Berberis) , " Shangir/ Maleti"( Liquorice ), " Sapistan/ Dabak/ Lasoda" ( Sabestan fruit ) etc.etc. It will save us from the side effects of allopathic drugs.

6.For surgery, we will re-train our barbers who are already adept in this field.

7.For footwear requirements, we will bring back the world renowned  "Khraw" and " Pulhor".

8.For milk and milk products, we will revert back to Liquorice kahwa or plain kahwa chai.

9.For abnormally high demand and consumption of mutton, we will grow soyabean by clearing some apple orchards. Soyabean industry will be top priority.

10.For common salt, we will explore mountain salt from "Harmukh" hills .

11.We do not require paint, dyes and chemicals. instead, we will use"haldi"

( turmeric) and red chillies and other spice dyes so that after every rainfall there is a fresh demand to increase production .

12.We do not need cinema halls and theatres. We will reintroduce "Happat

Khel"( bear show), " Paenz Khel" ( Monkey show) and " Saad Makkar " activities to promote our traditional entertainment .

13.In absence of automobile industry we will reinvent our tongas and carts. We will promote water transport through canals which will be made by digging the existing motorable roads. This will ensure jobs as "diggers" to our unemployed youth.

14.Azadi done, we will revert back to earthenware like " Leij", "Dulloo", "Taku", " Tcheidvaar" etc. In our kitchens because anything made of metal will not be available in the valley. This will boost our "Kraal"( pottery) industry and the potters who were hit hard by the chaal( trick) of màrkaz ( centre) by introducing metals and alloys like iron, copper, aluminium, brass and bronze. The introduction of the metals was chaal of màrkaz to deprive our "kraals"( potters) of their livelihood.

15.We will revert back to our glorious past by playing traditional games like " Sazza Long " and " Laithkinj Loth " if international community bans playing games like cricket and hockey with us. Màrkaz has played dirty by imposing these games on us. To hell with hockey and cricket !!!

16.Another chaal that markaz played with us was introduction of wrist watches, time pieces and clocks. After aazadi, we do not need these. We will throw these in riverJehlum.

We are skilled in knowing time by looking at skies and observing movements of the sun and the stars.

We can also know time by measuring

our own shadow. For that the new Government will supply free inchi tapes to the people.

17. Màrkaz has played a great chaal by handing us paper and metal currency. They knew that after azadi, we will feel handicapped.So, we have decided to use buttons as interim currency till expert committee gives it's report on new currency. We will have old tich buttons, shirt buttons, coat and overcoat buttons as new currency. All inhabitants of the new nation must remove buttons from their clothes to deposit in the Govt. treasury. Any person seen with his buttons on shirt, coat, overcoat or trousers shall be arrested and prosecuted. We will move without buttons and zips. This will save so many national hours consumed in buttoning, unbuttoning, zipping and unzipping our clothes. Our hearts are open and so should our clothes be after azaadi. This is required for ventilation and movement of air to keep us fit.

18.Now, coming to defence !! Màrkaz has high precision guns like Bofor , metal weaponry, tanks, aircrafts, fighter planes. Since we will have no metal in our nation, we shall revert to non-metal, traditional weaponry of Kashmir. Our kangri with burning charcoal can strike any gun or tank, if thrown at proper angle and no one can match us in creating an angle. Our "soi" grass and Pampore red chili powder are also best weapons for close combat.These can beat any TNT or RDX. We will start NCC brigade with " gulail"(sling). Chaand Maari ground shall be cleared of all constructions and a parade ground shall be created as it used to be before 1953. Our armed forces shall have a parade there.Chinese premier shall be invited to witness our first parade with our battalion boys in knee high gum boots, a bundle of "soi" grass, a packet of red chili Powder and kangris on their shoulders. A grand display of our ammunition many tempt many powerful countries sign MOU with us for supply of the new arsenal. This will give boost to our chili and kangris industry. Forget rice, we will grow "soi"grass. No person will remain unemployed .

19. Now, the question is, Where from the money will come in absence of huge funds pumped in by the màrkaz ??? We will revert back to our glorious pay scale of 70--6--130 .

20.For communication, we do not need network of airways, roadways or railways. We will dig a tunnel that opens directly on the shores of Atlantic, Pacific and Mediterranean oceans. We will run high speed "tongas" or "redas"( carts) on ball bearing railings through the tunnels. One long tunnel will be dug right upto UN Security Council headquarters, so that our agitated and agitating leaders can directly reach there in full special tongas without any hinderance and hurdles.

21..Above all, we will educate every person to be careful about entry of any commodity to our newly liberated country, so that "MARKAZ"( CENTRE) CAN NOT PLAY ANY "CHAAL"( TRICK ) AGAIN.  BY DOING ALL THIS, WE WILL ACHIEVE A PRIDE POSITION AND BECOME A POWER TO RECKON WITH.

WE ARE OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS ,

DO YOU HAVE ANY  ?????
