I have never been there. Thinking of Kashmir creates images of snow capped mountains, wollen clothes, and the Dal lake.
The past of J & K and its people has been terrifying but they have not lost hope. I realise why.
Them people live in the lap of mother nature and are pampered and most cared for, provided for, and blessed by the Lord. They dine by the fires, sitting by the lake, with the snow capped mountains protecting and guarding them and the purest of air to breathe.
but.....
.....pollution too has touched the Heavens. Rise people, for there is no place else to go.
.....or is there?
State of Affairs:
"Through me is the way to sorrowful city.
Through me is the way to eternal suffering.
Through me is the way to the lost people.
Abandon all hope, you who enter!"

Of course, the snowcapped peaks and chill of the pure air coupled with the aroma of kaadha is all very true...
But man is a selfish animal, living for himself with little time to think of other humans, leave aside mother nature.
Why talk about Kashmir, which is far away anf which i might not visit,
for that reason why even speak about the major dumping ground about 40 kms from Pune (im sorry forget the name)
Speak about the corner of my stret, the PMC garbage bin lies empty and flies indulge themselves on the banana peals, rotting food and deteriorating tissue that lies strewn around.
Spare that moment, use the bin!
