Kashmir is burning again and to dream that Kashmiri Pandit's can return and live there is self illusion. The sensible though late move for the community and the leadership is to seek a homeland in Europe and USA/Canada where immigrants and refugees are welcome.

It was a very successful event as majority of people who came were themselves refugees or former residents of Pakistan, Tibet, Bangladesh and the Indian state of Kashmir. Now Turkey attacks and Saudi bombings and Bangla massacre have all pointed their fingers at Pakistan and its terror net work.
