Prakash: My dad lived in Jammu as a kid until 1947. I doubt he knows where Mir Nasrullah is.

Mayray Dost,

I only read a small part of your web site.

I too have a web site as www.indianphilosophy.cc/

I enjoyed centuries old Hindu Muslim unity for twenty years from my sccool at age 9 in 1926 in Delhi.

In Islam ‘neeyat’ and ‘khairaat’ are very important.

I seek ‘khairaat’ from you provided you have any friendly e-mail contact in Srinagar.

I am keen to trace Mir Nasrullah. He was the son-in-law of Bakshi Ghulam Mohd who was once Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir.

Can you do either of these two things if at all convenient for you.

If your friend can ring up the Post Master of the Head Post Office in Srinagar and give me his name and e-mail address for this purpose I can reach him.

If your friend knows the family he can get me Mir Sahib’s e-mail address.

I was working under him in Central Government in Delhi in 1970.

If you cannot halp me, please let me know so that I can thank you and for coming across a gentleman who is pure in heart to give information about himself so openly.

With prayers for your well being and regards,

Please acknowledge to free me from suspense.

Prakash Narain

parvez: it nowehere mentions your name or your grandfather’s in the credits.

I am not sure whose names you are interested in. My dad’s name, Ajmal, is up there. My grandfather’s name is also mentioned in this post. My great-grandfather (referred to as grandfather by my dad in this series) is mentioned without name. If you would like to know his name, please email me.
