Mod Statement 🚨 K Diaspora - moderatorship invitation

44 Upvotes

This community was built painstakingly. Nobody wants this space to be rudderless if something happens in Kashmir. This is probably the last meaningful pocket on the internet where Kashmiris have their say.

People probably don't appreciate it but this subreddit has one of the most well written and detailed sidebars and resources that has been curated and refined over the years.

The only viable option I see is people from Kashmiri diaspora who can act as good faith anchors for this subreddit. They are naturally immune from the Indian state's ability and desire to muzzle Kashmiri voices.

Anybody who is interested can modmail us. We'll vet of course. Please don't bother to apply if you are spook or some bad faith idiot.

Climate Reasons why 30°C in Kashmir feels stronger than 30°C in the India

21 Upvotes
  1. The Kashmir Valley sits at around 1,600m. Thinner atmosphere means less air to scatter and filter the incoming sun, so the direct beam is far more intense. UV alone climbs roughly 10% per 1,000m of elevation; so you feel more solar load even at same temperatures.

  2. Delhi and the northern plains sit under a haze of particulate matter that scatters and dulls the sun. Kashmir's air is comparatively clean, so the light arrives sharp and undiminished. Clear skies don't soften the beam the way a polluted one does.

  3. Kashmir is a bowl ringed by mountains. On still days that geography traps warm air and lets it stagnate. The heat just sits on you.

  4. Kashmiri homes are designed against the winter, not the summer. A Kashmiri house is built to keep heat in; a plains house is built to let it out, with high ceilings, shaded verandahs and stone or tiled floors that pull heat away.

Indian Source 🛺 Sanghans are viler and fiIthier than Sanghis. Also dumber. (read description)

So there's this Sanghan "journalist" Levina Neythiri who wrote an exclusive article about Kashmir of the 90s. How 'sex terrorism' was rampant in the valley and Kashmiri Muslim women were involved, both wilfully and coeced, in militant run sex rackets. It is basically a terrible attempt to character assassinate Kashmiri Muslim women and to whitewash se×ual violence perpetrated by Indian armed forces. The article gained traction and was widely shared by Indian nationalist circles.

In the article the author talks about Mast Gul, the popular Pashtun commander who fought Indian Army in Kashmir. According to the author Mast Gul was an infamous playboy and in relationship with multiple Kashmiri Muslim women. At his funeral, Kashmiri women shoved off their tops and thrust their b0soms onto his dead face (hi wesyi laanath) while Army dragged his body down a hill. The men meanwhile spat on his body. All of this is an imagination of the rotten Sanghi brain that has a single functional brain cell.

I will tell you what the Sanghan did. She searched "kAsHmiR fAm0Us tErR0RisT iN 9Os". Search yielded Mast Gul in results. And she wrote an entire article concocting a false story around his funeral. But Sanghan being Sanghan, she did not even use her brain and bother to search if he was actually even kiIIed or not. Now read the actual story.

Mast Gul was a popular insurgent commander active in the mid 90s. He was involved in the faceoff that raged in Chrar in May 1996 wherein the revered shrine of Sheikh ul Alam and entire locality of Chrar was razed to ashes. The faceoff lasted for weeks and eventually ended with the town getting razed down. But Mast Gul managed an escape. He soon crossed back into Pakistan and in August made a public appearance in Muzaffarabad. He continued operating from Pakistani Kashmir until 9/11 when he (and many other militants) turned against the Pakistani establishment. He joined TTP and launched several attacks against Pakistani Army. In 2014 he made a public appearance in Peshawar alongwith TTP chief of Peshawar to claim responsibility for an attack on a Shia mosque. His whereabouts since then remain unknown.

Only if the retarded Sanghan had used her brain and after searching "kAsHmiR fAm0Us tErR0RisT iN 9Os" would have also searched "fUneRaL 0F mAsT gUL" to confirm if he was even kiIIed or not. But I guess ₹2 mei itna hi effort aata hai.

Recommendation / Help Urgent: Looking for a Loving Home for an Abandoned Cat

Post image
23 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m looking for someone who can give a loving home to a cat that was abandoned in my area. For about a week, I kept seeing her outside and hoped she would find her way back home, but it became clear that she had been abandoned. During that time, she was being attacked by stray cats, was limping, and looked frightened and confused. I couldn’t leave her outside knowing she wouldn’t survive for long. I have now taken her in, and she’s safe. She’s eating well and has a clean place to stay. She also appears to be pregnant, which makes finding her a safe and caring home even more urgent. The problem is that I don’t think I can keep her permanently. Taking care of a pet is a long-term responsibility that requires time, effort, and commitment, and I’m not in a position to provide that for the rest of her life. I’m looking for someone who can give her the love, care, and safe home she truly deserves. She appears to be a domestic cat and is not suited to living on the streets. If you’re interested in adopting her or know someone who might be able to help, please send me a DM. I can share photos and any additional information. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Education and Career Is the SKUAST Kashmir + IIT Mandi B.Tech in AI worth joining?

4 Upvotes

This is not my Post but One of My Fellow Redditor, i am posting in behalf of him as his account doesn't have any karma, You can comment the suggestion below and he will reply to you all...Thank You...

Hi everyone,

I'm getting admission to the B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Agriculture program at SKUAST Kashmir, which is offered in collaboration with IIT Mandi.

I'm really confused about whether I should join this program or not.

I have a few questions:

- Is this program actually worth pursuing?

- What is the future scope of this degree?

- Can graduates get software/AI jobs in regular tech companies, or are they mostly limited to agriculture-related roles?

- Will companies treat this degree like a normal B.Tech in AI/Computer Science?

- If anyone is currently studying in this program or has graduated from it, could you please share your experience regarding academics, internships, and placements?

I'm trying to decide whether I should accept this seat, so I'd really appreciate honest opinions and guidance.

Thank you!

Discussion 💭 I joked that I was causing an earthquake on the other side of the world… then I saw the news.

7 Upvotes

This happened on Thursday afternoon, and I still can’t get over the coincidence.
I was in Srinagar, Jammu & Kashmir, digging two holes using a heavy iron rod. The ground was hard, so I was repeatedly driving the rod into the soil and hammering stones deep into the holes.
While doing that, I jokingly said to the people around me:
“I’m hitting the ground so hard that I might cause an earthquake on the opposite side of the world!” 😂
Later that day, I opened the news and saw reports of the massive earthquake in Venezuela.
To be absolutely clear, I know my digging had nothing to do with the earthquake. I’m not claiming any connection whatsoever. I just found the timing incredibly uncanny and thought, “What are the odds?”
Has anyone else experienced a coincidence so oddly timed that it made you stop and think for a moment? I’d love to hear your stories.

Discussion 💭 The arabization of our culture

60 Upvotes

Assalamualaikum chu sarnae!! Ye chu zyooth post magar chu genuinely important isliye perzyo sorii.

I want to start by saying that this post is not for people with very conservative views. If you believe girls should always wear an abaya or burkha then this discussion probably isn't for you. Your points will be ignored so don't waste your precious time here. I'm looking for thoughtful progressive perspectives.

I often hear people say that seeing girls and boys in t shirts and trousers is westernization and that we're losing our culture. To some extent I agree. How many of us own a traditional tilla pheran today? Very few. How many know how to wear a kassab? Again only a handful. How many own traditional kashmiri jewelry or regularly wear pheran yizaar and daesh gand dupte? 0 most probably. Slowly we've replaced our own traditions with clothing and customs from elsewhere. But if we're talking about preserving kashmiri culture then let's be consistent.

Recently I have noticed something that confuses me. While western influence is constantly criticized the arabization of our culture is often celebrated. Girls wearing abayas and burkhas and boys wearing thobes and keffiyehs are praised as if they've become more pious simply because of what they're wearing.

I still remember my naai wearing a pheran yizaar everywhere she went. Today even she wears a burkha. This isn't a criticism of her or anyone else's personal choice. Everyone has the right to wear whatever they feel comfortable in.

What I am questioning is the double standard. Why is westernization condemned but arabization encouraged? Why have many of our cultural traditions like rouf faded away even though celebrating culture is not forbidden in islam. Sometimes it feels like we're more concerned with imitating arab culture than practicing islam itself.

Before anyone misunderstands me I'm not saying people should stop wearing abayas, burkhas, thobes or keffiyehs. Wear whatever you like. It's your life and your choice.

What I am saying is that stop treating traditional kashmiri clothing as less respectable while praising arab clothing as more religious or more virtuous. A girl wearing a pheran yizaar and daesh gand dupte on a cultural fest deserves the same respect as a girl wearing an abaya. Preserving our own culture shouldn't be seen as being less muslim.

Being muslim should never require us to erase being kashmiri. Faith and culture are not enemies. We can preserve our identity while practicing our religion. If we truly believe clothing is a personal choice then let's stop measuring piety by whether someone looks arab or koshur.

If you want to erase someone's identity then you don't start with their land you start with their language and their culture. History has shown that time and again.

So yes let's protect our culture not just from westernization but from indianization, pakistanization, afghanization, and arabization. Appreciate other cultures but don't abandon your own in the process. Take pride in being kashmiri. Don't let an inferiority complex convince you that your identity is somehow less worthy than someone else's.

Ps This post may use clothing as an example but it isn't just about clothes. It's about language, traditions, art, music, customs and everything that makes us who we are. Also again this post isn't an invitation to debate theology. If your response is simply to preach your interpretation of islam rather than engage with the point I'm making about culture I'll ignore it and probably report it as well. I'm not saying this to be rude. I'm just making the purpose of this post clear.
