"June is hot, as always, and remains hot unless it rains here in Punjab. The suffocation indoors, the constant buzzing of fans, the tiny sparrows searching for water in the scorching heat, the coo-coo of quails; all the sights and sounds sadden me, and when the heat here makes it difficult to breathe, I suddenly miss the cool shades of Ghizer’s meadows.

The music of Ghizer's flowing River It is Muharram when I decide to visit Ghizer during my stay in Gilgit; an autumn sadness envelopes the entire valley.

JAANDER BAATEIN
A must read for all Gilgities and rest of Pakistanis for understanding the history and status of GB. A brief, but amazingly comprehensive report by a brilliant man from GB, Afzal Shigri, the former IGP Sindh.
"The UN resolution regarding disputed territories as well as the decision of Pakistan’s Supreme Court enjoins the government to give GB complete autonomy. Every national political party that participated in the recent local assembly elections has made a firm commitment to conclusively settle this issue of constitutional rights and formal integration of the area into Pakistan. This is a crucial challenge. If the government again tries to postpone it, there will be strong reaction that can evolve into popular agitation. Yet another meaningless amendment in the governance structures is not an option."
Challenges for GB government The demand for GB to be granted its constitutional rights cannot be postponed further.
