| Panun Kashmir launches Nishkasan Katha,a story representing genocide and exodus | | 
Jammu, January 18 (Scoop News)- A significant meeting of Panun Kashmir activists was held today under the convenorship of Kuldeep Raina, General Secretary, and B.L. Kaul, Organizing Secretary. The meeting marked the formal announcement of Nishkasan Katha, a narrative that aims to represent the collective experience of the Kashmiri Pandit genocide and exile.
Conceived by Kuldeep Raina, conceptualized by Tito Ganju, and written by Dr. Dileep Kaul, this katha seeks to memorialize the community’s trauma while serving as a powerful medium to communicate the truth of their displacement. Far from being a compilation of individual accounts, Nishkasan Katha is a singular, evocative representation of the pain, survival, and resilience that define the Kashmiri Pandit experience.
Speaking on the occasion, Kuldeep Raina said, “The Nishkasan Katha is not just a story; it is the voice of an entire community. It captures our collective memory, blending personal pain into a shared narrative that reflects our journey of loss, survival, and hope.”
The narrative encapsulates the horrors of the Kashmiri Pandit genocide-the targeted killings, forced displacement, and destruction of culture and identity-while highlighting the unbroken spirit of a community that continues to fight for justice. It represents the Kashmiri Pandit exodus as a chapter in the larger human story of resilience against oppression.
The activists at the meeting emphasized upon the significance of Nishkasan Katha as a form of memorialization. By crafting a single, powerful katha, the initiative aims to ensure that the Kashmiri Pandit genocide is remembered and acknowledged, while also countering historical distortion and denialism.
B.L. Kaul, Organizing Secretary, summed up the initiative’s intent: “Memorialization is an essential step in our pursuit of justice. Nishkasan Katha serves as both a remembrance of our past and a beacon for our future. It stands as proof that our voices, though silenced for decades, will never be erased.”
The meeting concluded with a call to the community and supporters to rally behind this project, ensuring that Nishkasan Katha reaches the diaspora and becomes a cornerstone in the narrative of the Kashmiri Pandit struggle.
With Nishkasan Katha, Panun Kashmir reaffirms its commitment to preserving the memory of the genocide and keeping alive the fight for justice and recognition. This katha will stand as a powerful reminder of the atrocities endured and the indomitable spirit of a people who refuse to let their history be forgotten.
