THE DILEMMA OF BEING A KASHMIRI!!

ईश्वर अल्लाह तेरे जहाँ में नफ़रत क्यों है ,जंग है क्यों 
         तेरा दिल तो इतना बड़ा है ,इंसा का दिल तंग है क्यों??
Sipping my ginger-tea,was listening to the above lines which were written by Javed Akhtar and musically composed by AR Rehman,my thoughts drifted towards an audition round of a famous singing reality show.
A boy has come all the way from Poonch district,Jammu&Kashmir to give the audition.And during entire time he was trying to convince that he loves India,he wants to work for the country,he wants to inspire the youth of the Kashmir,etc.
Question is WHY?
WHY he has to be so much convincing one?WHY he has to give any kind of explainations to anybody for anything?
THIS IS BECAUSE HE IS FROM KASHMIR-a place which is engulfed in curfews and vigils always.
He was lauded with words that the place which is always filled with sounds of firings of guns and bobardment of grenades,he is trying to sing is in itself a very big thing.
Being a Kashmiri puts them in a danger zone.Zone of suspicions and interrogations.They are thrown out of the the various colleges of Delhi and Noida.And more pathetic situation is that they can't get easily admissions everywhere.So many students who leave J&K in order to to pursue higher studies,dreaming of various things and when they are thrown out of the colleges along with bundles of insults,hits,abuses they land like a huge thud in their conscience.Can we understand their condition?No,probably not.
Most of them so much afraid that they never go back again to study out of state.They start practicing their family occupations.
Some who dare enough to begin they have to start to start  over everything again.
They are Vulnerable and Fragile.
Can you imagine the job prospectives there.
TOURISM is their main source of earning.And it is affected by the lack of snowfall,due to the attacks,the situations,the atmosphere remains tense for the tourism.
All the Kashmiris are not against India and its government.
Do you think there are some avenues to these problems to be solved??
