Professor Abdullah Charoo, the then Chairman J&K State Board of School Education advised Kashmiri Pundit students at a Public address at Jammu not to be revengeful for the wrong done to them by the few. In my address to the same gathering, I said that Kashmiri Pundit students need not to be lectured on the subject of secularism. They are born secular.

I further said that the miscreants looted not only our home and hearth but did not spare even our undergarments. Despite loot at such a large scale, they failed to touch our real wealth that is our real education. This real wealth stood by us at the time of adversity. I said that for that real wealth, we are indebted to the State Board of School Education (Kashmir) and the J&K University (Now Kashmir University).

14th July, 2015 on my way back from Navgam Srinagar, I offered lift to one needy in his sixties on the roadside from Natipora to Rambagh. I introduced myself to him and told him that I am ‘Butea’ a Kashmiri Pundit. To my surprise, he said: “you cease to be a Pundit, you are a Musalman. I said:”How?” He said that for a long time on the roadside, he sought lift from many with floating beard, but none obliged him. To him the Muslim means one who has compassion for others, with or without beard.
