Dilip kumar's aura

"In parapsychology and many forms of spiritual practice, an aura is a field of subtle, luminous radiation surrounding a person or object (like the halo or aureola in religious art). The depiction of such an aura often connotes a person of particular power or holiness. Sometimes, however, it is said that all living things (including humans) and all objects manifest such an aura. Often it is held to be perceptible, whether spontaneously or with practice: such perception is at times linked with the third eye of Indian spirituality. Various writers associate various personality traits with the colors of different layers of the aura. It has also been described as a map of the thoughts and feelings surrounding a person."

This is how wikipedia explains Aura. I am not sure whether every person emits this aura or not, but in my life I have experienced such 'aura' in three people. Besides my father, I have felt very small in presence of Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah and Dilip Kumar. I was not able to look straight into their eyes.

NO WILL

Armed Forces (Jammu and Kashmir)Special Powers Act, 1990 is a Central Act.This Act can be enforced in an area which is declared to be a disturbed area either by Central or by the State Govt. The Jammu and Kashmir Govt, on 6/7/1990, issued a notification declaring certain areas to be disturbed in terms of section 3 of the ACT.

The AFSPA, in the state of J&K, is thus operative because of 6th July notification issued by the State Govt.

It is well settled principle of law that an authority who has power to issue a notification has power to revoke it. Therefore, I have no doubt in my mind that if State Govt wants, it can revoke or modify the 6/7 notification.

Why is then the state CM going door to door seeking revocation from areas which according to him are not disturbed?
