Women in Conflict: A Study of Kashmiri Women and their struggles for Controlling Homes.
Keywords:
Kashmiri, WomenAbstract
The stunningly picturesque Valley of Kashmir has long been a haven for introspection, intellectual progress, and religious variety, all of which coexisted peacefully in a climate of tolerance. This similar variety, which can be seen in the state's mix of Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, and Buddhism, has turned it into a battlefield rather than a place of cultural progress in the contemporary geopolitical period. An uprising in the valley in the late 1980s posed a serious threat to the region's stability, as well as to international peace and security.
