Introduction
I have come to Srinagar after ten years; during my last visit, I spent several days here addressing the university, Women's College, public meetings, and also several army groups in Srinagar and nearby places. This time, it is a brief visit of five days and I return day after tomorrow to Hyderabad. I am very glad and thankful to the Principal of this Women's College for arranging a programme here where I can meet the young women getting education in this institution and also the teachers imparting the same.
