Restoring The Dignity of Public Education in J&K
Dr. Rizwan Rumi On Teachers’ Day, classrooms, auditoriums and social media platforms will once again be filled with familiar words: nation-builders, mentors, role models, torchbearers and architects of the future. Teachers will receive bouquets, certificates and messages of appreciation. Speeches will celebrate their contribution to society.
Rediscovering The Magic of Dawn
Dr Rizwan Rumi There was a time when human life moved naturally with the rhythm of the sun. Long before smartphones kept us awake deep into the night, dawn was not merely the beginning of another day; it was a moment of renewal. In Kashmir’s villages and towns, the early hours once carried a particular kind of quietness. Farmers left for their fields, elders walked along familiar paths, households stirred after morning prayers, and the first light slowly transformed the landscape.

The Stolen Sanctuary: Why it's time to give 'School Vacations' back to children
Srinagar, July 9 -- The final school bell before the summer or winter break once symbolized freedom. It marked the beginning of weeks filled with laughter, family gatherings, outdoor adventures, books read for pleasure, and the quiet joy of simply being a child. Vacations were never intended to be an extension of the classroom; they were designed to refresh young minds and prepare them for a new academic beginning. Today, that cherished tradition is gradually disappearing.

Climate Uncertainty and the Cry for Crop Insurance in Jammu & Kashmir
Srinagar, May 30 -- The Valley that once greeted every season as a sacred blessing now increasingly watches the sky with fear. For generations, Kashmir's agricultural rhythm moved in harmony with nature. Spring carried the fragrance of almond blossoms, summer nourished emerald paddy fields, autumn crowned orchards with crimson apples, and winter wrapped the Valley in quiet resilience. Seasons were once predictable companions of rural life.
HT Syndication: The Human-AI Classroom: What Really Changed by 2026
Srinagar, Jan. 27 -- In most classrooms across India-and perhaps more tellingly, in Jammu and Kashmir-the arrival of Artificial Intelligence did not announce itself with spectacle. There were no ceremonies, no banners proclaiming a digital revolution. AI entered education quietly, almost invisibly, through lesson plans prepared late into the night, examination papers reviewed with unexpected speed, and students revising their lessons on borrowed smartphones in dimly lit rooms.

The Silent Brokers - Kashmir Vision
KV Network Text Size Print This Page By Dr. Rizwan Rumi There are mornings in Kashmir that still smell of dew and determination. The first rays of the sun fall gently upon the apple trees—their branches heavy with the red pride of the valley, the fruit that has long sustained both its economy and its spirit. But beneath the fragrance of ripe apples and the rustle of Chinar leaves lies a quieter truth—one that many orchardists whisper but seldom voice aloud.
Stranded Between Hope and Neglect - Kashmir Vision
KV Network Text Size Print This Page By: Dr. Rizwan Rumi The harvest is the Valley’s prayer made visible. Each autumn, Kashmir’s orchards blush red and gold, the trees bending with fruit that carries the labour, dignity and livelihood of millions. Apple is not just a crop here; it is a culture, an economy and for countless families, the single source of survival. But this year, the prayer has gone unanswered.

When Pen Speaks - Kashmir Vision
KV Network Text Size Print This Page Send by Email By: Dr. Rizwan Rumi There are moments in life when language betrays us. The lips tremble, the voice cracks and yet nothing meaningful escapes. Sometimes the heart becomes so heavy that words refuse to walk the path from the soul to the tongue. You wish to shout, to cry, to confess but a strange suffocation grips you. In such moments, when every other medium of expression breaks down, there remains one loyal friend—the pen.
Kashmir’s Shattered Trust in Food Safety - Kashmir Vision
KV Network Text Size Print This Page Send by Email By: Dr. Rizwan Rumi For generations, Kashmir’s bustling markets have been a symbol of abundance—where shopkeepers greet customers with warmth, spices fill the air with fragrance, and the clinking of tea cups mingles with the hum of daily trade. Food here is more than sustenance; it is culture, hospitality, and trust served on a plate. But over the past few weeks, that trust has been shaken to its core.
Let Kashmir's Story Be Told Again
(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) KO File Photo By Abid Bhat When you arrive in Kashmir, the first thing that strikes you isn't the snow-capped mountains or the scent of pine in the air. It's the silence. Not the kind that unsettles, but the kind that calms, that holds a thousand stories within it. But lately, that silence has changed. It's grown heavier, more uncertain. The recent attack in Pahalgam shook the valley.
