The matriarch Smt Sukhmali Koul, made #Bhaderwah #Jammu her home & went onto become the first Lady teacher in the area, also setting up a school for girls. Giving back to her community, in the best way she could. 
A few generations down, the fly remains committed to their region & nation. Ruchir Kumar Koul marries a beautiful Bhaderwahi girl in 1989. 5 yrs into the marriage, Rucher was gunned down by terrorists. He left behind two small children, 3 & 5 yrs old & a 26 yr old wife.
