iqwat 2.8

The Kashmiri Pandit community has faced multiple exoduses, notably in 1990, leading to its dispersion across the globe. The consequences of this dispersion pose a serious threat to our rituals, traditions, music, food, language, and overall culture. The sense of pride associated with being a Kashmiri Pandit is imperiled and could potentially face extinction in the coming decades.

To safeguard and uphold our identity and the intrinsic pride of being a Kashmiri Pandit, collective action is imperative. Collaboration is key to this endeavor – it must be done in unison, following the principle of iqwat.

iqwat is a mobile application designed to unite us, foster an appreciation for and preserve our culture, and ensure the continuity of our traditions.
