Historically #Kashmiri women have enjoyed freedom like none of their counterparts in the other regions of our country. The intrusion of regressive ideologies, targeted at women, in the 90’s, might have pushed them behind but they are rapidly changing the gender norms.

#Kashmir
The spirit of women in #Kashmir, supported aptly by various #government initiatives, have grown wings that enable them to soar the skies and break the glass ceiling.

With the #abrogation, women of #Kashmir now have a stake in their ancestral properties regardless of their choice is spouse. This have liberated women who are not bound, shackled with patriarchal laws.

@NamrataWakhloo @AartiTikoo @IAmErAijaz
In #education, though the female #literacy rate in #Kashmir stands just at 68%, against the national average of 76.9%, there has been a steady upward trend.

From 52.3% in 2011 to 68% in 2020, it is a clear indication of the surge in more girls joining mainstream education.
Due to the continuous efforts of both #Government and #army locals have come to realise the importance of modern education for holistic development and complete independence of their daughters.

#Kashmiri Women have also proved their mettle in the field of #sports. With many women/girls now proudly representing #India in various #international sports, they have clearly left behind their male counterparts by miles.
@AdityaRajKaul @iCitizenSajid @manishindiatv
Years of #insurgency and #Pakistan sponsored terrorism has left many girls devoid of education. To ensure they find financial #independence govt has also initiated several schemes to make them vocationally competent.
@FatimaDar_jk @kakar_harsha @atahasnain53
The #Govt. has started various #SkillDevelopment centres in #Kashmir under the Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana #scheme where youngsters from the economically backward sections are given skill training.
Women have become self-reliant with these government-backed initiatives.
Women in #Kashmir have become the flag-bearers of #entrepreneurship and #EcoBusiness in the valley. Under various schemes easy loans are given to women entrepreneurs to encourage them to choose such industrious field
@TheSatishDua @manojsinha_ @pandeypoonam20
But just schemes and initiatives are not the reason for rising women of #Kashmir. Their indomitable courage and strength even in the face of #terror is an example to follow and imbibe.
@FatimaDar_jk @kakar_harsha @atahasnain53 @AartiTikoo @MirYanaSY
#Women are the true embodiment of the culture and values of a society. They are resilient, persistent, strong, courageous and most importantly they have the capability of building a strong nation.
#Kashmir
Though they make up half of the population, #patriarchal shackles limit them from realizing their potential. We need to stand in support of our #women and give them the opportunity to spread their wings and soar the skies.
#Kashmir

Education enables us to make effective decisions about ourselves, our surroundings, and our societies.
Suffice to say #Education as an institution is notably significant in a civil society. And more so for #Kashmir.

@AdityaRajKaul @LtGenGurmit @AsimKhanTweets @MirYanaSY Image
In #Kashmir, the importance of structured #Education increases manifolds due to the dynamic nature of this region. Lack of education has a severe cascading effect here, eventually leading the gullible young people towards unlawful activities.
@kakar_harsha @neeraj_rajput Image
#Pandemic has restricted movement all over. With every public institution closed including schools and colleges, the Govt of #Jammu and #Kashmir have introduced initiatives to help students continue their studies, even in such uncertain times.

LoC #CeaseFire Reaffirmation Decoded. #thread

For nearly two weeks the villages along LoC are witnessing days and nights without the sound of guns and bombs as the DGMOs of the two nations announced reaffirmation of the #India - #Pakistan ceasefire agreement.
It is pertinent to mention that the cease-fire was asked by #Pakistan. Although, the agreement is reported to be a result of week long back-channel discussions, what made Pakistan walk on this road? Here is a quick analysis.
#India’s hardened approach to #Pakistan with cross-border surgical strikes after the #Uri terror attack & upped the ante further with the #BalakotAirStrikes following #Pulwama terror attack has made it clear that no more diplomatic resolves will opt until Pakistan mends its way

#MeraKashmirBadalRahaHai.
Reputed corporate houses are working with govt to drive socio economic growth & development for the youth of #Kashmir.
12 districts in Jammu & Kashmir will get District Youth Centres with state-of-the-art amphitheatres, auditoriums & libraries.
For these DYCs the Govt is working with reputed corporate houses of #India, including Reliance Foundation, Ashok Leyland & the Tata group. Reliance has shown interest in setting up sports leagues in the UT, while the Tata Group has decided to invest in the IT & education sectors.
These DYCs are a first-of-its-kind noble initiative by the administration to help the youth of J&K to realise their immense potential, dreams & aspirations. Youth can take advantage of these facility for education, social & recreational purposes.

#FahadShah @tkwmag unveiled. #Thread

The Kashmir Walla @tkwmag better known for spreading hatred in its articles, landed in hot waters this time. On 27 Jan @tkwmag falsely claimed that Jamia Siraj-ul-Uloom school in Shopian was “pressurized by army” to hold Republic day function Image
The article became an embarrassment for @pzfahad & @tkwmag when the school authorities of Jamia Siraj-Ul-Uloom released an official statement clarifying that no such compulsion was there from the army or police & the news reported by @tkwmag was totally baseless. Image
Now an FIR has been rightly registered against @tkwmag in this regard for peddling fake news, & once again for the umpteenth number of time @tkwmag is playing the victim card & talking about "freedom of press". Image
