Dear India,

I'm from Kashmir and I am happy to see India progressing day-by-day across all fields, both in government and private sector. But Kashmir, one of India’s states and an integral part of the country, lacks progress. There aren’t a lot of government jobs here, nor are there any in private sector. So how will an individual get a job?

There has been a lot of unrest since the past few years because of unemployment and lack of career guidance. I request the government, offer some employment opportunity in Kashmir, take some kind of progressive steps. If this is done, then I believe there will be no unrest and I assure you Kashmir will develop.

It's my humble request, let’s make Kashmir “Paradise on Earth” again.
Thanks,
Tajamul Islam from Kupwara, Kashmir
