IN ANY CONFLICT THE WORST AFFECTED ARE ALWAYS THE WOMEN... The narrative around the Jammu-and-Kashmir insurgency continues to be built around the role of freedom fighters insurgents and politicians - all of them not surprisingly men. Yet women have played an extraordinary role in the history of Kashmir in retaining Kashmiriyat - that long-forgotten ideal of mutual co-existence. Equally as mothers,daughters, widows, fighters, martyrs, and mujahids, they have been inseparable from the four-decade-old conflict. In The Land I Dream Of researcher Manisha Sobhrajani documents her encounters with women from disparate backgrounds across the troubled state. A Kashmiri Pandit forced into exile as a child; a mother-figure battling the establishment to give hope to thousands like her whose men have disappeared; an eighty-year-old who trained to fight tribal invaders in 1947 as part of Kashmir's first women-only militia; and young Muslim women empowering themselves through entrepreneurship - the lives she chronicles bear witness not just to the suffering and apathy Kashmiri women have had to endure but also to their strength in the face of it all. Combining individual recollection with journalistic endeavour this searingly personal account of loss and despair and equally of hope and optimism is a testament to the resilience of the women in one of the world's most fractious regions.
