If truth disrupts what you call harmony, it may well be time to revisit old wisdom and realize that such harmony probably did not exist, except in the fertile imaginations of an elite. I do not suppose your descendants shall agree with your meretriciously wise sermons, were I to rob you of everything your family held dear. And I am no mere robber unknown to you whose act of robbery but stochastic in nature. I am someone whom you trusted; a neighbour, a friend. I consciously chose to betray your trust. Let me avoid your efforts to bring me to justice for thirty years, and let the highest dispenser of justice rule that ‘too much time has passed’ to afford you justice.

The Supreme Court of India, to my recollection, echoed the four words of your principle, “What’s over is over”, noting that ‘too much time had passed’ with regard to the Kashmiri Pandits. Indeed, justice is now to be secondary to the length of time passed. Some of us just happen to disagree — I hope you understand.

Some Names of the Kashmiri Pandits who succumbed in course of genocide against them by their fellow Islamic brethren are as follows –
